Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers, 1905, p. 95-96:
John A. Maycock, architect, of Leamington, County of Essex, Ont., and one of the leading and representative citizens of that locality was born in Sandwich, Ont., Oct. 1, 1850, son of Richard and Ann R. (Gasgyn) Maycock, and their only living child...
     John A. Maycock was about twelve years of age when he went to England with his father, and for three years he attended a Jesuit college in Banbury, taking a civil engineering and architectural course. Completing his studies there, he returned to America, and after a six months' stay in New York city came on to Ottawa, where his father was then located. A year later the family removed to Goderich, where John A. secured a position in the office of Thomas Weatherhold, a prominent O. L. S. and Civil Engineer, and there remained some time, or until he went into business for himself as an architect, in partnership with a Mr. Snaill. Two years later Mr. Maycock opened an office alone, and among the many buildings designed by him may be mentioned that of the Goderich high school. In 1878 he came to County Essex, and opened an office in Essex Centre, where he was architect for the town hall. After a period of a year or two he went to Kingsville, and was the architect for the public school building, the English church and the Masonic Temple. From Kingsville he went to Windsor, opened an office and was identified with the same profession until 1895 or 1896, winning many laurels for himself by the quality of his work. While at this place he drew plans and superintended the construction of many city buildings, among them being the Fleming building, the finest of its kind in the city, costing $52,000. For three years he was architect for the board of education. In 1896 he removed to Leamington, at the request of Mr. Baird, with whom he has since been associated. In his present responsible connection Mr. Maycock had drawn the plans for the Presbyterian church and St. John's church, and has been the architect for all the buildings of any note put up since he has settled here. During his years of work, Mr. Maycock has gained and maintained the reputation of being one of the most skilled draughtsmen in Ontario. His map work for the Dominion of Canada is said to be the best done for the government.
     In 1872 Mr. Maycock married Miss Jane Hardy, of Kincardine, County of Bruce, Ont., and three children were born of this union: Dora, married Monroe Wigle, of Kingsville; William is a resident of Leamington; Ann is a resident of Woodstock...
