1858 Tax List for Brown County shows Abram McCain with 200 head of cattle, worth $1,000.00; the next year Abram has 300 head of cattle.
Apparently he is gathering many cattle and considering the size of the herd, a plausible reason is a planned move to West Texas. Haynie's absence from the Washington County tax rolls, but his presence for the 1857 election and Abram's growing heard of cattle suggest the possibility that the two were making a slow entry into West Texas, moving out in stages, while Janie and the children remained in Washington County. Whatever the case, the 2 families, headed northwest, sometime in Iate1860. Eventually reaching the lower edge of the Osage or Lower Plains in an area north of the western reaches of the Colorado River. The McCain's and Gilliland's ended their journey in the northwestern part of Brown County, settling on Pecan Bayou, a tributary of the Colorado River. Established in 1856 the county had only half of the average rainfall of Washington County.
