Brigadier Charles Frederick Cunningham Macaskie CMG (26 March 1888 – 26 November 1969)[1] was an English barrister who served as the first Chief Justice of North Borneo.[2]
Career
In 1910, Macaskie had remained in the British protectorate of North Borneo after the First World War ended to work as a British government official.[3] Between 1934 and 1945, he served as the Chief Justice and Deputy Governor of North Borneo.[4][5] After the Japanese occupation of British Borneo, Macaskie returned and was appointed chief civil affairs officer for the period 1945-1946 and was later made commissioner for war damage claims for the Borneo Territories between 1947 and 1951.[2]
After he left North Borneo, Macaskie held the position of acting British judge at New Hebrides (now Vanuatu) in 1955, 1958 and 1959.[2]
Personal life
Macaskie' first marriage was to Maggie Winifred Mary Macaskie (née Bruce), who bore him a son in 1919, Ian Bruce Macaskie. Due to Macaskie' frequent work travels into the interior region of Borneo, his family was often left alone in the capital Jesselton.[3] In 1922, his wife fell pregnant with a Scottish man's child. Macaskie sent the family back to England to allow Maggie to give birth in more hospitable conditions and agreed to be listed as the child's father.[3] Later, during one of Macaskie' trip back to Kent, the couple agreed to officially separate and eventually divorced in 1926.[3]
In 1946, Macaskie married Doris Cole-Adams (née Legg).[2]
