The first of the Rudolph family to arrive in McKinney were Abe and Harriet Rudolph Hall in 1852. Abe operated a blacksmith shop near the square on Louisiana Street for twenty years before moving northwest of McKinney to a farm, for which he paid $1600 in gold. During the Civil War when Collin county was isolated by blockades, he operated a train carrying cotton from the area to markets in Mexico.
