Peter Guilar Mackenzie was born in Dirleton, East Lothian in 1881 and would go on to become one of the most talented golfers in the whole of the County. He is recorded as having been an assistant golf professional, pressumably at the Dirleton Club, prior to being appointed as chief green keeper to the Burgh Club in North Berwick. He would enlist in the 15th Battalion Royal Scottish Regiment early in the war and would experience considerable fighting in France and Flanders. On the 10th April 1918 he fell in action at the age of 37. Corporal Peter Mackenzie is buried in the Caberet-Rouge British Cemetery, Souchez.
