This picture was taken by Capt Gleason who has collected models of ships that were made in the 1800's.  This is a Sail Ship called "The Brothers" which Capt John McIntosh built and sailed with passengers to Canada and USA.  Captain John McIntosh was born in 1754 in Colarich, parish of Logierait, Scotland and was married to Anne Ferguson.  They had five children all boys John James, Charles, William,  and David.  They came to Canada in 1801.

Captain Charles McIntosh was born Aug 1, 1800 and died aboard his ship Cobourg in 1834 when his son Charles II McIntosh was less than a year old aboard  the Cobourg at York, ON.

Captain James McIntosh left the ship to visit his newborn baby, whereby he, his wife, his father, also took malaria and died.

They had the following children Marjorie, Peter, Margaret, Isabella, and Charles III, my grandfather who married Ida Belle Corrigan.  They had the following children Harry-my dad, Elgin and Ivan.
