McIntosh, William

(?1775–1825) Indian leader, soldier; born in what is now Carroll County, Ga. Son of a British officer and a Creek Indian, he led the Lower Creeks in alliance with U.S. forces during the War of 1812 and served under Andrew Jackson in the Seminole campaign in Florida (1817–18). A party of Upper Creeks, incensed by his conciliatory policies toward white settlers, killed him at his home on May 1, 1825.
