He was born in Saratoga, New York in 1787, the son of John McDonald, a Scottish immigrant.

In 1836, he was named a commissioner for improving navigation on the Saint Lawrence River; McDonald became president of the commission in 1838. In 1839, he was named to the Legislative Council of Upper Canada and, in 1841, to the Legislative Council of the Province of Canada. He was removed for non-attendance in 1848 after his business interests left him too busy to attend. In 1851, he passed control of the firm to his nephew, William Stone McDonald. He died at Gananoque in 1860. McDonald's former residence now serves as the town hall for Gananoque. (en)
