Mayer Halff
Mayer Halff (1836-1905) was a pioneering rancher in Texas and a prominent member of the Jewish community of that state. Mayer acquired of ranchland in western Texas and New Mexico and at one time was the third largest cattle owner in the United States.
==Early Life==

Halff was born 7 February 1836 in Lauterbourg, Alsace, France. Halff's family was engaged in the cattle industry. In 1851, Halff immigrated to the United States, joining his brother Adolphe in Galveston, Texas. Halff was an itinerate peddler for several years in the area around Liberty, Texas. Adolphe perished in a shipwreck in 1856. In 1857, Halff's younger brother Solomon joined him in Texas and the two brothers became business partners. Solomon managed the Halff's dry good store while Mayer increasingly became involved in cattle trading. Halff became a U.S. citizen in 1860.〔Weiner, Hollace Ava and Roseman, Kenneth D., Eds. (2007) ''Lone Stars of David The Jews of Texas,'' Waltham: Brandeis University Press, p. 51-53〕
Halff apparently did not serve in the Confederate States of America army during the American Civil War, but instead relocated to southern Texas and Matamoros, Mexico. His brother Solomon, drafted into the Confederate Army, was jailed for not serving, but eventually became part of a largely Jewish infantry unit.〔Weiner and Roseman, pp 53-54〕 In 1864, the Halff brothers opened "M. Halff and Brother" dry goods store in San Antonio〔"Halff, Mayer," ''Texas State Historical Association'', https://tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/fha16, accessed 6 Oct 2015.〕
Halff married Rachel Hart on 2 September 1866. The couple had four children who lived beyond infancy, one of whom, Henry Mayer Halff (1874-1934), owned and managed the largest Halff ranch after his father's death.〔"Halff, Henry Mayer," ''Texas State Historical Association'', https://tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/fha15, accessed 6 Oct 2015〕
