The homes were bound for a staging area in Jasper, about 170 miles northeast of Galveston.
FEMA in January, at the urging of Galveston leaders, leased the field for a temporary mobile home park for evacuees still in hotels because they had no other housing.
The Galveston County Daily News reported Friday that fewer than half of the mobile homes were inhabited since the site opened March 13.
FEMA spokeswoman Patricia Brock says Galveston County has one other remaining park serving Ike evacuees, with 39 occupied mobile homes at High Island.
