	ALLAN MACKINTOSH, president of the Southern Lumber & Supply Company of 
Tampa, is one of the solid and representative men of Hillsborough County, whose 
astuteness and business acumen have aided materially in the development of his 
concern. He was born in Inverness, Scotland, February 7, 1870, and was reared 
and educated in his native country. Early in life he came to the United States, 
settling in Florida, and in 1896, when twenty-six years of age, he came to
Tampa, which city has continued to be his home ever since.
	Upon coming to Tampa he entered the lumber business, and has continued 
in it, and is now at the head of the Southern Lumber & Supply Company, the 
largest and most prosperous concern of its kind in the south. This company owns 
and operates extensive works at Tampa, and has customers in all parts of 
Florida. It handles all kinds of lumber and building materials at both 
wholesale and retail, and its planing mill and mill-work shops are thoroughly
modern and equipped with special machinery of latest design. The plant is
located at the foot of Tyler Street. Associated with Mr. Mackintosh in the
business is C. H. KNOWLES, who is vice president, a sketch of whom appears
elsewhere in this work, and the two have achieved something of which they may
well be proud, for it not only is a source of wealth to them, but is a valuable
addition to the industrial life of Tampa and Hillsborough County.
	On April 5, 1896, Mr. Mackintosh married at Ocala, Florida, Miss MARY
D. GASKILL, and they have two children, namely: ANNIE and MARGARET. Mr.
Mackintosh is recognized as one of the most valuable citizens of Tampa, and his
influence for good government and progressive civic advancement is felt in many
ways.
