Styled Earl of Cassilis from birth, he was born at Berkeley Square, London, the eldest son of Archibald Kennedy, 3rd Marquess of Ailsa, and the Honourable Evelyn, daughter of Charles Stuart, 12th Lord Blantyre.[1]
He was educated at Monkton Combe School, Eton, Trinity College, Cambridge and the University of Edinburgh and was admitted as an advocate in 1897.[1]

Lord Cassilis was appointed a captain in the 3rd (Militia) Battalion of the Royal Scots Fusiliers on 7 January 1900,[2] and served in the Second Boer War 1900–02, where he won two medals and five clasps. In the final months of this war, he was attached to the regular army from April to July 1902.[3] Following the end of hostilities in early June 1902, he left Cape Town on board the SS Wakool,[4] and arrived at Southampton the next month.
He was promoted to major in June 1911 and later served in the World War I. He was also a Deputy Lieutenant of Ayrshire and a Fellow of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society. In April 1938, aged 65, he succeeded his father in the marquessate.[1]
