Fort Adams , Mississippi Fort Adams is a small , abandoned riverport community in Wilkinson County , Mississippi , about 40 miles south of Natchez . It is notable for being the United States ' port of entry on the Mississippi River before the acquisition of New Orleans , and was the site of an early fort by that name . The town was called Wilkinburg and was incorporated in 1798 . Prior to that time the community was known as Loftus Heights and formerly had been a Jesuit mission called The Rock Of Davion , first settled as such circa 1689 - 1700 . This is also the site where the Choctaw Treaty of Fort Adams was signed in 1801 . History . Around 1700 , a French priest named Father Albert Davion established a mission on the Mississippi River bluffs at or near the site of Fort Adams . The mission , which was established to bring Christianity to local Indians , became a landmark and stopping place for people traveling on the river or on the overland trails that connected Natchez with New Orleans . Davion left the mission by 1720 , but the site continued to be called Roche Davion ( Davion ' s Rock ) for many years thereafter . It acquired the name Loftus Heights in 1764 , when a British expeditionary force led by Major Arthur Loftus was ended after being attacked by Indians at this site . The site became Fort Adams after the United States and Spain settled a boundary dispute over parts of what is now southern Mississippi . The Treaty of San Lorenzo ( Pinckney ' s Treaty ) , signed in 1795 , established latitude 31 N as the boundary between Spanish West Florida and Mississippi Territory . U . S . General James Wilkinson selected Loftus Heights for a military post in 1798 on the advice of Captain Isaac Guion . The site , on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River about six miles upriver from the new international boundary , was judged to be a good position for observing and thwarting military movements on the river and was described by Wilkinson as the " most southerly tenable position within our limits . " The new fort was named for the sitting U . S . President , John Adams . In December 1801 , Fort Adams was the site of the negotiation and signing of a treaty between the Choctaw and the United States government . The Treaty of Fort Adams was the first in a series of treaties that ceded Choctaw land to the U . S . government and eventually led to the expulsion of the Choctaw Nation from lands east of the Mississippi River . In exchange for 2 , 641 , 920 acres ( 10 , 691 . 5 km ) of land , the Choctaws received merchandise worth about $ 2 , 000 plus three sets of tools for blacksmithery . In subsequent years , the river channel shifted away , leaving Fort Adams far from the Mississippi River . As of 1993 , Fort Adams was a small community and the site of businesses that provided supplies to hunting and fishing camps in the region .
