Decatur was founded in 1823 but reduced to four buildings during the Civil War in 1865. Then a yellow fever epidemic hit in 1888 but the town continued through it all. The city has the Old Decatur District, a Victorian-era neighborhood, which occupies the original town site that was settled in 1820.
