About City of Mont Belvieu (Texas)

The City of Mont Belvieu is located in Chambers and Liberty Counties in the state of Texas. It is just north of Interstate 10 along State Highway 146. It is estimated that the population in 2022 is approximately 8,340. The first permanent settlers to the area were Henry Griffith and his wife, Amelia Burrow. Both from the Louisiana area. After floating from Louisiana and landing in Mont Belvieu, they decided to settle there. Henry was a cattle rancher and at one time all of Mont Belvieu was used as pasture land for their cattle. Amos Barber became the second settler, and other settlers followed. After years of owning all of the land Griffith sold the deed to the land known today as Mont Belvieu. Henry Griffith died and was buried with no grave marker; Amelia soon followed. A memorial has been erected at the site of an old oak tree and there is a rumor that Amelia was buried just down the hill from where their house once stood, just down the road from Kenefick Veterinary clinic which now borders the Enterprise Products Inc. gas storage facility.
