Allan McIntosh (1866 – 1943)
	
Allan McIntosh came north in the Klondike gold rush.((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 3 September 1943.)) Gustavus Gustaveson and his two sons prospected and found gold on Duncan Creek, a tributary of the Mayo River, but they did not stake their claim. In September 1901, Allan McIntosh, Colin Hamilton, Duncan Patterson, and Jake Davidson discovered the Gustaveson's cache and located the mine. They staked claims and, after word spread, there was a staking rush to the Mayo region.((Ted Stone, //Alaska & Yukon History along the Highway.// Red Deer College Press, 1997: 84-85.)) McIntosh mined at Minto Lake in 1903.((Linda E.T. MacDonald and Lynette R. Bleiler, //Gold & Galena.// Mayo Historical Society, 1990: 419.))

McIntosh was hired by the Canadian Klondike Mining Company at Bear Creek near Dawson when Joe Boyle was in charge and for a number of years was a dredge superintendent for the Boyle Company in the Klondike Valley. ((//The Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 3 September 1943.)) He was listed as a mail carrier in Mayo in 1916-17 and he ran a taxi in Dawson until the 1930s.((Linda E.T. MacDonald and Lynette R. Bleiler, //Gold & Galena.// Mayo Historical Society, 1990: 419.))
