George emigrated to Canada in 1869 with his father James McIntosh, half-sister Mary Ann, half-brother Henry, and sister Alice. George and Alice were residents of the Waterloo house of industry and refuge. Alice was adopted by a local family, August and Caroline Meinke of Berlin. She eventually married William Bernhardt. It is not known what became of George McIntosh after October 1881 when he left the house of industry.
