The Col. Montgomery Gilbreath House is a historic house in Guntersville, Marshall County. It was built around 1858 by Montgomery Gilbreath (1814-1885), who was born in Tennessee but moved with his family to Alabama sometime between 1815 and 1820. He served in the Seminole Wars and then raised and headed a local company after the outbreak of the Civil War. He was a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1875 during Reconstruction. The house is one of only two structures that remained standing in Guntersville after the Civil War ended; it is currently the headquarters of the Guntersville Historical Society.
