John married Elizabeth Carter on 14 Jan 1847 in Sabine Parish, Louisiana. Elizabeth (daughter of George Carter and Drucilla Wyatt) was born on 15 Sep 1827 in Texas; died on 18 May 1910 in Sabine Parish, Louisiana; was buried in McComic Cemetery, Sabine Parish, Louisiana. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Her father is listed as coming from South Carolina, and her mother from Lousiana. (Casagranda, 1850 Census, 89). Jerry Carter (jcarter427@hotmail.com) believes but has not proven absolutely that she is the daughter of Drucilla Carter Sheffield, to whom she was living next to at the time of the 1850 Sabine Parish Census. It is thought, but not proven, that Drucilla's maiden name is Wyatt. Near neighbors are Nancy Goff, a daughter of Drucilla, David and William Carter, sons of Drucilla. These are also the parents linked to her at her FindAGrave memorial page created by Travis D. Brown. This memorial page has a photo of a grave marker that includes elaborate engraving, a poem titled "Gone but Not Forgotten," a black and white portrait of Elizabeth, and "Mrs. Elizebeth McComic, Born Sept. 15, 1827 Died May 13, 1910, Age 82 Yrs, 9 mos, 2 days." The marker also has engraved at the bottom Copyright 04, by H. F. Wendell & Co., Leipaio, O.

. Others believe her to instead be a daughter of Redmond Carter and Nancy Kemp/Camp.

Notes:

Married:
The couple is listed through the 1860 census for Sabine Parish with one child, Charles McCormick. They were known to have 10 children, 7 of which were living by 1900. Other children born to John J. McCormick and Elizabeth Carter include Mary, Milton, Riley, Martha, Ann, Wyley, John (mentioned above in relation to the Eason family) and Wyatt. (Casagranda, 1850 Census, 89).
