Biography contributed by Geoffrey Gillon

He was the son of Robert McIntyre of 51 High Street, Rothesay, Bute, Scotland.

He is one of 12 Casualties who served with Australian forces in the Great War who are remembered on the Rothesay War Memorial. The year of death shown, 1919, is incorrect. The Royal Burgh of Rothesay (Scottish Gaelic: Baile Bhòid) is the principal town on the Isle of Bute, in the council area of Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Rothesay lies along the coast of the Firth of Clyde. Located on the Esplanade near the Pier, it is known locally as "The Angel".
