The eldest son of Alexander Oliphant-Murray, 9th Lord Elibank and Emily Montgomery, he was educated privately and entered the Royal Navy in 1854.

He succeeded his father as 10th Lord Elibank in 1871. He was Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Peebleshire in the 1880s, before becoming Lord Lieutenant of Peeblesshire from 1896 to 1908. In 1911 he was created 1st Viscount Elibank. He also served as a Justice of the Peace. He was described by his younger son as a "staunch Conservative".
