It does look like McIntarh, and that was my first thought, a possible
variant of McIntyre, but there are many 'r's on the page and this one
as far as I can see is unique, so I go with McIntosh, however I could
not find a marriage for this couple at Familysearch with either choice.

Thank you for your replies! :)

I agree - it does look like the name is McIntosh, but as mentioned the combination Leishman/McIntosh doesn't return any marriage matches.. Odd. I'll just have to keep searching.
