I am sure there is a cattle brand registry, but I am having a hard time finding anything online. Anyone know any good resources for identifying active brands?

Texas
The state of Texas records brands by county. Texas brands are recorded with the county clerk of the county in which the animals are located. Each Texas county also sends a copy of the brand registration to the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association, who enters the brands into a database for retrieval by their officers / inspectors, and can be used by other law Enforcement entities in their theft investigations. Texas also stations over 70 inspectors at livestock sales facilities around the state to monitor animals, as well as sellers passing through these facilities.
The organization has jurisdiction in both Texas %26 Oklahoma for its Law Enforcement functions, and Field Inspectors are Commissioned in Texas %26 or Oklahoma, as Sworn Peace Officers. The association is also the go-to agency for Texas Brand Inspection documents for those animals traveling to or through mandatory inspection states.
Our thanks to S. M. Clark, Brand Inspector with the TX %26 SW Cattle Raisers Assn Law Enforcement / Inspections Division for providing this information.
try going to the cattlemans association.
