Mr. McCormick was born February 10th, 1872 in New Vernon, Pennsylvania, and came to Douglas county in 1892, homesteading near Foster Creek.

In 1905, Mr. McCormick was married to Mary Hogarth, who was a great-granddaughter of Gen. Isaac Shelby of Revolutionary War fame-the first governor of Kentucky. Her father James A Abbott, built the first railroad into Dennison, Texas, and her parents crossed the plains in 1852 by ox-train and helped blaze the Old Oregon Trail to The Dalles. Mrs. McCormick died in 1930.
