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. A focal point of downtown is the magnificent Victorian courthouse that was built in 1873 and remains the home of the County Government. The county historical society is also located near downtown in a beautiful home once occupied by a prominent family of Decatur. The Location of North Adams Community School District and Belmont Junior/Senior High School at the east edge of Decatur, on the grounds of the former Steele's Park and Fairgrounds, it's 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 80 years through a network of local and visiting physicians and specialist form nearby Fort Wayne.
