24.0Caution: This table shows the time when families came to Texas, and the county of their residence in
1850 or 1860. But the time of their arrival in the county of residence is not necessarily the same as the time
of their coming to Texas. First settlement may have been in some other county. Hence the figures, while
excellent indicators, are not absolute indices to the rates of settlement in the several counties.
