John A. Macdonald was born in Scotland and was raised and educate in Kingston, Upper Canada. He was a lawyer, but during most of his life political duties left him little time for his law practice. He married twice and was survived by his second wife and two children.
He entered provincial politics as a Conservative in 1844, becoming a member of the Execute Council in 1847. Macdonald played a major role in creating the Coalition of 1854 which he moulded into the Liberal- Conservative Party which dominated much of the succeeding half century. He was the central figure in the creation of the Canadian Confederation of 1867. Becoming Canada's first prime minister in 1867, he retained that post until 1873. He was prime minister again from 1878 until his death on 6 June 1891. Besides being prime minister, Macdonald held numerous important cabinet posts. Macdonald was central to many Canadian political developments such as the Northwest Rebellions, the Pacific Scandal, the Canadian Pacific Railway and the National Policy.
The papers of Sir John A. Macdonald were arranged between 1891 and 1917 by Macdonald's former secretary and literary executor Sir Joseph Pope, who placed the papers in the Public Archives at the request of Baroness Macdonald. The papers contain approximately 276,000 pages, most of which concern post-Confederation affairs. Ninety-five percent of the collection has been microfilmed on 202 reels. The microfilm is available in provincial archives.
There are two basic types of finding aids available. Computer indexes exist for volumes 1 to 545, 558 and 569 and are available on microfilm. They consist of nominal (microfilm reels C-4810 to C-4813), subject (C-4813 to C- 4815) and chronological indexes (C-4815 to C-4818). Each index consists of approximately 150,000 entries. Bound Finding Aid 104 contains a subject list for volumes 1 to 185, an author list for volumes 186 to 296 and a box list for the rest of the collection. Detailed lists exist for the financial papers, letter books, transcripts and a microfilm conversion list. -iv-

Naif d'Écosse, Josh Alexander Macdonald grandit et étudia à Kingston, dans le Haut-Canada. Il fit carrière comme avocat, mais ses nombreuses occupations politiques lui laissèrent peu de temps pour exercer sa profession. Il se maria deux fois. Sa seconde spouse et ses deux enfants lui survécurent.
Il débuta dans la politique provincial comme député conservateur en 1844 et devint ministre en 1847. Macdonald joua un rôle primordial en formant la Grande Coalition de 1854, laquelle devint par ses soins le Parti liberal- conservateur qui domina le demi-siècle suivant. Il fut le personage central dans la creation de la Confédération Canadienne. Macdonald devint le premier ministre en 1867 et demeura dans ce poste jusqu'en 1873. Il fut premier ministre encore une fois de 1878 jusqu'à sa mort, le 6 juin 1891. En plus d'être premier ministre, Macdonald remplit plusieurs postes important au sein du cabinet. Macdonald joua un rôle important au cours des rebellions du Nord-Ouest, du scandale du Pacifique, de la creation du chemin de fer du Canadien Pacifique et de l'établissement de la politique nationale.
Les papiers de sir John A. Macdonald furent classés entre 1891 et 1917 par un ancien secretaire et exécuteur littéraire. sir Joseph Pope, à la demande de la baronne Macdonald qui souhaitait que les papiers fussent déposés aux Archives publiques.
