D. McINTYRE, Treasurer of Alger county, Michigan, is a young but experienced business man of this county, whose resi- dence dates back only three years, when he located at Munising as agent for the Chicago Lumbering Company, for which he still maintains an office and does business. Mr. McIntyre came to the upper peninsula from Alcona county, this State, six years ago, and was stationed at Manistique in Schoolcraft county, in the employ of the Chicago Lumbering Company, before being trans- ferred to Munising. Of sturdy Scotch ancestry, the subject of our sketch inherits to a marked degree the sterling characteristics of his fore- fathers. His birth occurred in Alcona county, Michigan, April 14, 1870. His education was received in the district and high schools, he having completed his high-school course and grad- uated in 1884. His business education he obtained through Bryant and Stratton's Correspondence School of Buffalo, New York. He could not afford to spend the time in attending any business college in person, and so did his study at night after work hours, sent his papers in for examination and was awarded a diploma for completion of this course in 1892, being ten months on the course. This training, together with his actual business experience and contact with people, has been of great value to him, and has better qualified him for business than has many a young man's college life. In 1884 Mr. McIntyre went to work in the woods for Alger, Smith & Company, and re- mained with them until his coming to upper Michigan, as already stated. In 1894 our young friend launched out into politics, and that same year he was given the nomination for County Treasurer by the Republican party, with which he had allied himself ever since he has been a voter; and he was duly elected after a vigorous and heated canvass, in which county everything else went Democratic on the original count. Mr. McIntyre's father, Duncan McIntyre, was born in the highlands of Scotland in the year 1823, and died in America in 1873. He and his wife, whose maiden name was Mary Carruthers, had a family composed of the following named members: Isabell, wife of John BURT, Alcona county; John, also of Alcona county; Julia, wife of Lewis IOTTE, Tomahawk, Wisconsin; A. D., whose name heads this article; and Ed and Matie. A. D. McIntyre was married June 2, 1894, in Munising, Michi- gan, to Miss Jennie O'DONNELL, and they have one child, Maud. Like many of the most progressive young men of the day, Mr. McIntyre has identified himself with secret organizations. He is a Master Mason, belonging to Marquette Lodge, and also has a memberhship in the K. O. T. M. ===========================================================================
