Archibald was born in Darling Point, Sydney, on 3 June 1884 to Sir Robert Lucas-Tooth, 1st Baronet and Helen Tooth, the youngest of three sons, and had four sisters. Brothers Captain Selwyn Lucas-Tooth (born 19 March 1879, Sydney), 3rd Battalion of the Lancashire Fusiliers, was killed in action at Ypres on 20 October 1914; and Captain Douglas Keith Lucas-Tooth (born October 1882, Sydney), 9th Queen's Royal Lancers, died in action in the Battle of Aisne on 14 September 1914.
