Belton, TX | The History

Belton began as a small settlement called Nolan Springs that was established around 1850. The name was quickly changed to Nolanville, which became the seat of Bell County. In December 1851, the name was changed to Belton. By 1860, Belton had a population of approximately 300, a courthouse on the square and weekly stagecoach service. The decade also saw the founding of the oldest weekly newspaper in the state to have been continuously published and the establishment of the first bank in town, which led to Belton’s prominence as a regional banking center.

Like many other towns in Central Texas, Belton was anxious for the railroad to be routed through their town. The city fathers campaigned aggressively, but the Santa Fe railroad opted to promote the site of Temple, undermining Belton’s status and leading to the loss of several businesses that chose to move from Belton to Temple. However, when the Missouri, Kansas and Texas arrived in Belton in 1882, Belton again began to grow. By 1890, Belton residents enjoyed a public water system, electricity, daily stagecoach service, 13 grocery stores, daily mail service, three newspapers, two hotels, three banks and an opera house.

Much of Belton’s growth had been driven by its importance as a cotton center. Several cotton gins, a cottonseed oil mill and a yarn factory were some of Belton’s cotton-related businesses. When cotton prices fell dramatically and the Great Depression arrived, many of Belton’s businesses closed. Between 1928 and 1931, more than 2,000 people left Belton. The population, which had been almost 5,100 in 1920, dropped to approximately 3,000 by 1940. Belton’s population and its economy began to recover after Fort Hood was established during the 1940s. By 1950, the population had reached almost 6,300, and by 1980, it exceeded 10,000 for the first time in Belton’s history. The town continues to grow steadily.
