About Us

Our bank began as a private bank owned in 1889 by J.F. Anderson and his son, Charles, just two years after the City of Ardmore was founded. Within a year a national charter was granted, and on August 13, 1890, the bank began operating under the name of The First National Bank of Ardmore. The original J.F. Anderson and Son Bank held the honor of being the first nationally chartered bank established in Indian Territory. Since then, First National Bank [1NB] has expanded into 8 additional locations, catering our services to each community. We take great pride in being community leaders; not only as a financial institution, but also in the work our employees perform through many activities as volunteers in churches, schools, civic organizations, and local government. We care about our communities, which include the Ardmore, Lone Grove, Madill, Marietta, Norman, Ringling, Sulphur and Velma areas. We try to make a difference. Sincerely committed to affirmative action, First National Bank and Trust Company has prepared this Affirmative Action Plan to cover all employees working in our facilities.
