Alexander McIlhenny (November 10, 1778 – January 25, 1835) was an American military officer, Maryland state legislator, occasional federal judge (?), farmer, and diarist. He served as chief of staff to brigadier general Daniel Bissell during the War of 1812. McIlhenny represented Frederick County in the Maryland House of Delegates in 1826. During the fraught 1828 U.S. presidential election McIlhenny wrote a public letter describing his recollection of an Andrew Jackson scandal that occurred during their military service in colonial-territorial Mississippi. He served as a justice of the peace and did legal work in his community (executing deeds, etc.), and was seemingly impressed into sitting as a judge in cases before the U.S. circuit court in Baltimore in 1830. McIlhenny's preserved diaries describe his career, family life, and the society and economy of Maryland and southern Pennsylvania during the early 19th century.
