His grandfather Andrew was a road maker, bridge builder, geologist, adventurer, soldier, writer and artist. Andrew Bain was the ‘pass man’ – he built Michell`s Pass, Houhoek Pass and Bain`s Kloof. As surveying ran in the family, Major Bain was also a surveyor. Because his surveying was so good the surveyor-general never checked up on it. He surveyed many of the farms in the district. He worked from his house – the present Room 3 in Bain’s House was his office.
