==History==
James Robert Steele built a lumber mill and cotton gin in what is now Adaton around 1852, after relocating from Steelville farther west in Oktibbeha County. John Easterwood built a new gin on Self Creek Road in 1893, behind Christopher's Store, which operated from some time in the late 1800s until 1979. In 1870, the first Adaton Post Office was established.〔 The town began as a farming community and became known for its many churches, some of which still exist today. Adaton United Methodist Church was founded in 1878, after originally organizing in 1856 as Steele's Chapel,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.adatonumc.org/#!history/c8de )〕 Josey Creek Missionary Baptist Church was founded by poor black sharecroppers in 1886 in a brush harbor,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.joseycreek.org/blank.html )〕 and Adaton Baptist Church was founded in 1923.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.adaton.org/adaton-history )〕 The local economy progressed over the years from cotton farming to dairy, then lumber. Today the community is primarily a bedroom community to the city of Starkville and Mississippi State University.
