The village of Bellaire was founded on a piece of property owned by Ambrose E. Palmer in 1879 after it was decided that a more central location was needed for the county seat.
Originally named Keno, it was changed to Bellaire by Mr. Palmer, June 20, 1879, who made the suggestion for the name change taking into account the air quality.
Two large parks are located within the village limits, Craven Park has several ball fields and a large campground, while Richardi Park has a pavilion and tennis courts, with a nice swimming area and picnic tables.
The county court house, downtown Bellaire, is listed as a historic landmark and has been recently restored.
