It depends on what you mean by "Adult Diaper". I'm sure that even in the distant past cloth material was used as diapers (just like for children) on adults who needed them. Later sheets of tissue paper were used inside rubber pants.

The first commercial children's cloth diapers were produced by Maria Allen in 1887, but It wouldn't be until 1949 that Johnson and Johnson produced the first commercial cloth type Adult Diaper. Ironically Johnson & Johnson had already introduced the first disposable children's diaper the year before. However, Adult would have to wait until 1987 when a company called Unicharm launched the "Lifree" brand adult disposable diapers in Japan.
