Seatonville is a village in Bureau County, Illinois, United States.

A post office called Seatonville has been in operation since 1889,[2] named for W. A. Seaton, an early settler.

The Seaton brothers, Isom and James, sank the first coal mine shaft there in 1880.

The mine was sold in 1888 to the Chicago, Wilmington, and Vermilion Coal Company based in Braidwood, Illinois.

A small community of African-Americans was brought in by the company to replace deserting miners.
