Additional Description: "McCormick is a community on Rock Creek twenty-six miles southwest of Chehalis in southwest Lewis County. The town once depended on a large sawmill and when the mill cut the available timber the place was nearly abandoned. It was named for Harry W. McCormick, owner of McCormick Lumber Company. Mr. McCormick became post master on May 31, 1899 and the post office continued in operation until July 15, 1929." - UWL
