Adding Adobetown to Our Gazetteer ...

The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Adobetown was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<3>

From that list, the Adobetown post office opened in 1875.

We also found Adobetown in the book titled Business Atlas and Shippers' Guide (1895).

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Adobetown, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Montana's counties, including Madison, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
