Posted on: Douglas County, Mo Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mo/Douglas/1464 Surname: McIntosh, Riley ------------------------- I am trying to track the lineage of my gg-father, Miller McIntosh. I do not have a b-date for him but do know that he spent most of his life in Douglas County.He married Rosella Riley on 5/7/1885 and had five children between 1886 and 1897; Minnie (1886), Zack (1889), Pearl (1891), Ruth (1894), and Oscar (1897). Both he and Rosella died c.1900 of typhoid fever after drinking bad water from a new well. they are supposedly buried in Brushy Knob Cem.(about 12 miles east of Ava). I do believe that they family resided in the Brushy Knob area as three of the children were definitley born in Brushy Knob.
