Description  Planters� doctor in Tirhoot. Brother-in-law of Edward Studd: Studd came up to Tirhoot under Mackinnon. Mackinnon was �a great speculator and had had shares in many indigo concerns, as the mark �CMCK,� still existing, on a number of indigo factory chests, indicates.� Like many others, dabbled in sugar, and became greatly involved [in debt], �so he made his property over to Messrs. Gisborne and Company, who gave him a small allowance to live on at home. Gisborne and Company placed the management and superintendence of Dr. Mackinnon�s properties in E. Studd�s hands.� Edward Studd and later, James Cox, managed, one at Dholi and the other at Seryiah. �Their management proved very successful, and before many years they had pulled the places out of debt, and Dr. Charles Mackinnon was looked upon as a man of wealth.�
