Her parents were were Peter and Margaret McCormick. Had siblings James, John, Margaret, and Mary. Family immigrated approx 1850 to Oshkosh WI through NY. Not sure if Rosa came with her family to Oshkosh. She is listed in an 1870 Probate document as child of Peter, but her last name is illegible. No other info on her.
This John McCormick married Ida Josephine Halbert in 1898. They are on the 1900 Johnson Co., TX census and also 1910, Erath Co., TX census. Living with them are two daughters of Ida: Bessie May, born 1890, and Edith P, born 1894. They were listed as John's step daughters. On the 1910 census it lists John as born in MO and his parents were born in IL. When I first became interested in our family tree I asked my dad for Aunt Edith's maiden name and he told me it was McCormick. She married my dad's brother, (James) Hubert McElroy. (Uncle Hubert). The McCormicks and Hubert and Edith McElroy are buried in Roosevelt, Kiowa Co., OK Cemetery. Dortha McElroy Greenlee
