Welcome to the Newto News for March of 2024. My name is Zack Cockfield, and my team and I created Newtomedia as a way for visitors or new residents to get information about a city. Each month we bring together resources that will update you on the history, amenities, culture, future opportunities and all other things inside a city that make it unique. We also hope to be a resource for connecting you with people and businesses that can help you live a better life. If you find our efforts useful, please click on the links to get more information!

Beaumont, Texas was founded in 1835 by pioneer settler Henry Millard and named after Mary Millard Beaumont, the wife of one of the town’s early founders. The town quickly grew into a bustling port city due to its strategic location along the Neches River, which allowed for easy transportation of goods and resources. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Beaumont became a center for the oil industry after the discovery of the Spindletop oil field in nearby Gladys City. This discovery led to a massive oil boom in the region, attracting thousands of workers and entrepreneurs to the area. Throughout its history, Beaumont has faced challenges including hurricanes, economic downturns, and social issues. However, the city has always shown resilience and a determination to overcome obstacles. Today, Beaumont is a thriving city known for its diverse culture, strong economy, and historic architecture.
