Great-Grandfather Elisha's family - Probably taken late 1800s or early 1900s:

Left to right, back row: Edgar Dean McCormick, Anvilla McCormick, Edwin Cummings McCormick (my Grandfather), Ruby McCormick, Walter Elisha McCormick, and Mary Elizabeth McCormick

Left to right, front row: Adelaide (Addie) Belle McCormick, Elisha McCormick, Susan (Cummings) McCormick, and Fred Lewis McCormick.

Currently living in St. Louis, Missouri, and can trace relatives back to early 1800s in Pennsylvania (Greene County), Illinois (Kirkwood), and Iowa (Bedford). Great-grandfather was Elisha McCormick, born 24 January 1837 in Greene County. His father's name was Jacob, and the trail stops there. Would appreciate any help!
