(III) Matthew W. McCormick was born on the Col. Brush place, Colchester South, Oct. 1, 1830, and was about sixteen years of age when the family moved to Lot 7, in the Gore....In time he came into possession of the 200 acres...
On Jan. 29, 1854, Mr. McCormick was married to Elizabeth Jane Taylor, who was born in New Brunswick, March 8, 1836, daughter of Steven and Jane Taylor....
Walter Herbert McCormick, the eldest son of Matthew W. McCormick, was born on the homestead on Lot 7, in the Gore, Colchester South, and there grew to manhood, enjoying the advantages of the home schools. At the age of twenty-one years, he began farming upon fifty-five acres of the old farm, and so continued until 1890, when he bought of Joseph Wright a farm of 110 acres, Lot 63, Concession 1, on the Lake Front. This was an improved property, and upon it Mr. McCormick has conducted his operations upon a very extensive scale. While interested in public affairs, his farming operations require the larger share of his time and energy. Fraternally he is a member of the Workmen of Harrow.
On Oct. 24, 1876, Mr. McCormick was married in this township to Louisa Christina Klie, daughter of the late Henry Klie, and children as follows have been born of this union: Arthur Albert, born Sept. 12, 1877, died Aug. 7, 1884; Guy, born Jan. 10, 1884, died Aug. 1, 1884; Annie Elizabeth was born Dec. 5, 1885; Cora Louisa, June 19, 1888; Maud Belle, Dec. ??, 1890; Matthew Warden, July 21, 1894. Both Mr. McCormick and his wife are representatives of the best families, of the best interests, and of the best farming fraternity of that fertile section known as the County of Essex, Ontario.
