"Little is known of the origin of William McIntyre. It has long been believed that he was a Scot, that he had come from the north of Ireland, and that he had settled in Boston about 1720. Records indicate that having lost his first wife, he married in Boston, Dec. 30, 1730, Margaret Kirkpatrick."S1

He was an early settler at St. George, and a signatory to an agreement with Mr. Waldo of St. George's Fort, 18 Apr 1735, to settle his family on the St. George River. William McIntyre drew lot 20 in the land distribution. The Descendants of William McIntire states that it "is generally believed that he was for a time master of a sloop and that he was often employed in Boston where several of his children continued to reside."S1
