Taiton or Tait or York was an unincorporated area in northwest Wharton County, Texas, United States.

[1] The one-time community was located 5 miles (8.0 km) north of New Taiton on State Highway 71 (SH 71).

However, numbers of German and Czech immigrants arrived in 1894, looking for land to cultivate near El Campo.

When the population climbed to 800 in 1910, the town included a dry-goods store, a produce buyer and some grocers.

The school counted two teachers and 104 white and four black pupils in 1926, but only 20 people lived in the community.
