Attention needed[edit]

This article could be improved by dividing it into sections. Also, I'm unclear as to whether or not the "Further reading" section constitutes the source for this article (is the source cited actually the Reference?; see also Wikipedia:Cite sources#External links/Further reading).

Some of the phrasing comes from the New Georgia Encyclopedia; apparently those sections where the edit screen is not right-justified. Not a deletable copyvio: it contains much more. Septentrionalis 18:59, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

William MacIntosh[edit]

After reading the article on Lachland MacIntosh, I clicked on the link to his brother William. Unfortunately (but interestingly), the link goes to a William MacIntosh who is actually his cousin. The half Creek, half white leader William MacIntosh was the son of Capt. William MacIntosh, a Tory in the Rev. War. That Capt. William MacIntosh was the son of Capt. John MacIntosh. This John MacIntosh was a cousin who, along with his brother Roderick, had come with John Mohr MacIntosh from Scotland. On the ship "The Prince of Wales" there had been at least five males named John MacIntosh in one form or another.

See the following: Meserve, John Bartlett. "The MacIntoshes." Chronicles of Oklahoma, Volume 10, No. 3, September 1932.

Duel Aftermath[edit]

In the Button Gwinnett article it says "McIntosh, although wounded, quickly recovered and went on to live until 1806. He was never charged in connection with Gwinnett's death."

However, this article says "Gwinnett's allies had McIntosh charged with murder, but he was acquitted in the ensuing trial."

Would anyone with more historical expertise than I care to resolve this discrepancy?
