Malcolm Murray, 12th Earl of Dunmore

Malcolm Kenneth Murray, 12th Earl of Dunmore (born 17 September 1946 in Launceston, Tasmania) is an Australia-based Scottish peer who is a native-born Australian and lives in Tasmania. As well as holding the Earldom of Dunmore, Murray is also the Viscount of Fincastle and Lord of Blair, Moulin and Tillimet.

Murray inherited the earldom from his father, the 11th Earl who died in 1995. The earldom first came to Australia when his uncle, the 9th Earl moved to Tasmania in 1942. The title had passed to his father upon his uncle's death (who had no sons) in 1982.

In 1998, he visited his ancestral home in Airth to plant a memorial tree beside the Dunmore Pineapple.
