Doris,
I'm not sure how (or if) I connect to the Georgia McIntoshes.They were a distinguished line from what I've read.Wasn't there one named Roderick, but known as "Rory" who was a Tory leader during the Revolution?But my McIntosh line comes from NC.Isabelle McIntosh, born about 1770, in the Cape Fear area, married Daniel McLendon and they moved to Ms in the early 1800's.I cannot go behind Isabelle, although I have found a "Swine" McIntosh who lived near the McLendons in NC.I cannot link Isabelle to Swine however.(In other words I don't have a clear "pigture" of Swine yet.Perhaps he descends from "Porkahontas")But thanks for the information you sent me.Charles
