Sir Edward Mortimer Archibald, (10 May 1810 – 8 February 1884) was a British diplomat, a lawyer and an office holder active during the transition to responsible government in the colony of Newfoundland.
Archibald was born in Truro, Nova Scotia, the son of Samuel George William Archibald and Elizabeth Dickson.〔("Sir Edward Mortimer Archibald" ) The Peerage.com〕 His father was a lawyer, and betimes, attorney general for Nova Scotia.
