History of Decatur

A man (Samuel Rugg) with a vision founded the
city of Decatur in 1836. The vision was that this
town would be the county seat and would grow to
be a city of importance. That is exactly what has transpired in the
intervening years! Decatur is not only the county seat but also the home
to many thousands of people that daily set about the task of providing a
living for themselves and families.

The location of North Adams Community School District and Bellmont
Junior/Senior High School at the east edge of Decatur on the grounds
of the former Steele's Park and Fairgrounds is a beautiful place indeed
and a source of local pride.

The only hospital in Adams County is also located in Decatur and has
provided the best of care for more than eighty years through a network
of local and visiting physicians and specialists from nearby Fort Wayne.
