McCORMICK. ...
(I) Alexander McCormick...

   To Alexander McCormick and his wife were born children as follows: (1) William, who lived for many years in this township, and later on Pelee Island, was a man widely known, and during the war of 1812 was a member of Parliament, continuing to serve as such for eleven years. (2) Nancy married a Mr. Stockwell, and lived on Lot 71, Colchester South. (3) Elizabeth died unmarried. (4) John is mentioned below. (5) Matthew lived in Colchester South, and has grandsons there now; his wife, Deborah (Wright) McCormick, died April 20, 1874, aged 71 years, one month and eleven days. (6) Alexander made his home near Oxley, where he had 400 acres of land; he married Mary Lidwell.

   (II) John McCormick was born in October, 1790, on a 600-acre tract on the site of the present city of Toledo, Ohio. He was a child when the family came to the County of Essex, and he grew up here. His advantages for securing a good education were limited. He began his independent farming operations on Lot 44, Lake Front, which he owned, and where he married. After a few years he traded Lot 44 for land in Lot 76, where he resided for some thirty years, and made considerable improvements, this being an 100-acre farm. This property he traded for Lot 7 in the Gore, a 200-acre farm now owned by his son, Matthew W., and he resided on this at the time of his death, which occurred Dec. 21, 1867, when he was seventy-seven years of age. All his life was passed in farming pursuits and he made his work a success. He belonged to the volunteers, and had a captain's commission, while in the war of 1812 he was a lieutenant, and participated in the taking of Fort Detroit. During the rebellion of 1837-38 he was captain of his company, and was present at the taking of the schooner "Ann," at Amherstburg. When he resigned he was succeeded by John Brush. In politics John McCormick was a Conservative, but in such matters his brother William took the leading part. The family were all members of the Church of England, and were prominent in the building of the first church of Sacksville, now known as Colchester. Mr. McCormick married Annie, only daughter of Philip Wright (her mother was a Dowler), and she died April 18, 1865, aged sixty-eight years and eighteen days. Five children were born of this union: Sarah Ann, who died aged two years; Alexander and Elizabeth, who both died young; Matthew W.; and John C., who died Dec 8, 1858, aged twenty-four years, ten months and eight days...

Commemorative Biographical Record of Essex Co., p. 593:
Thomas L. Wright, one of the prominent representative farmers of Colchester South, County Essex, belongs to one of the old pioneer families, the founder of which was Henry Wright.
...
Philip Wright, the grandfather of Thomas L. Wright, was born Jan. 5, 1775, at Rutland, Pennsylvania, and came with his parents to Grosse Ile, later to Malden, where he married a Miss Dowler, who died leaving one daughter, Anna, born March 30, 1796, who became the wife of Capt. John McCormick....
