Ran across the obit for this memorial, thought it worthy of a copy & paste into a bio for him as it is not under copyright protection.
I send an edit for the Month of Birth, It looks more like May than March and he is in a family tree on ancestry.com with a May birth month.  with the photo at a low resolution it's difficult to tell.  Also the birth year is questionable in the photo when we enlarge to try to better read.  I found in 1850, 1860, 1870 census the birth years of 1815, 1816....Would you happen to have the original photo that may be at a higher resolution that might help make a definitive determination?
Thanks,

(Clearly his age is a question, obit states "93" making him born in 1809)

Robert T. McIntire (McIntyre), in his 93rd year, died at his home near Finger on Nov 7, 1902.  (If the deceased was in his 93rd year, he would've been born in 1809)

Uncle Bob, as he as (was) familiarly called, was well known in the county and we (was) the father of a large family who are now in middle life.

One of his daughters is the mother of post master Dickey.  He has been feeble for a number of years, yet has been able to be about, frequently coming to Selmer within the past year. 

(Burial:  Mt. Carmel Cemetery)
