...
In his wanderings and trading expeditions, Alexander McCormick often came across white people who took to the Indian life - traders and trappers, or captives - and among a band of Chippewas visiting the Maumee country he discovered a white woman who had, judging from appearances, been with the tribe for some time...taking an opportunity to speak to her found that her name was Elizabeth Turner, and that she had been captured in March, 1780, at Pittsburg, about three years previously...she consented to become his wife...
After the marriage of Alexander McCormick to Elizabeth Turner they soon began to make preparation to return to the Indian Settlement in the Maumee country from which he had lately come; ...
On May 30th, 1784, a child was born to them, whom they named William. ...
...
Mr. and Mrs. McCormick had eight chidren altogether, William, Alexander, Matthew, John, Elizabeth (Betsy) (who never married), Mary (Mrs. John Ferris), Nancy (Mrs. Stockwell) and Sarah (Mrs. Price). It is not known just when Alexander McCormick came into Canada. The date is placed variously at 1787, 1788, or the early nineties... the British government ... was encouraging Loyalists to come into Canada, by offering 200 acres of land to each family that wished to settle. McCormick selected a 200-acre tract in what is now known as Colchester township, County of Essex, near the shores of Lake Erie... and he reached a grand old age. His wife, who was much younger than he, having been but eighteen at the time of her capture, survived him many years, her death occurring in 1839, when she was seventy-seven years old... Her sons all married and settled in the country, and some of them attained old age and raised large families, the name being still well known and respected in the old neighborhood.
