    Isaac Mackie (23 September 1880 – 22 June 1963)

    Isaac Mackie (23 September 1880 – 22 June 1963) Isaac S. Mackie was one of a number of brothers of the Mackie family who were natives of Earlsferry. The family home was Waldeve, which is on the beach front between Cross Wynd and Cadgers Wynd. He apprenticed as a club maker under George Forrester. He had an occasional brush with the law in his early years: He grew to be a tall man of stout build. While in his early 20s he married Annie Schacht, a native-born New Yorker. Following his brother Jack—who had emigrated to the United States in 1899—Mackie also made the trans-Atlantic journey in 1901. Jack Mackie, (q.v.) was one of the early pioneers in American golf being one of the founders of the PGA of America. He accepted a job as professional at the FoX Hills Golf Club on Staten Island soon after his arrival and remained in that post until 1914. He played a match against Walter Clark in 1905, the result of which is unknown. On 13 July 1905 he won an Open Tournament at the Van Cortlandt Park links by shooting 152 on a course that had been soaked with rain. He held off joint second-place finishers Willie Anderson and Bernard Nicholls who finished at 157. It was the first ever professional tournament held on a public links golf course in the United States. He won the 1914 Shawnee Open. And had various other successes from FoXhills. In a $500 four-ball match held on 26 August 1905 at Hollywood Golf Club in Deal, New Jersey, Mackie partnered with Willie Anderson of the Apawamis Club went on to defeat George Low and Bernard Nicholls.
