First Bank started in 1906 as Farmers State Bank, when local banks in West Tennessee weren’t just creating profits. They were creating the towns and communities like Scotts Hill where our flagship branch still remains today. Times change, but the things that make being part of a community great, like strong ties and trusted relationships, never change. That’s why we remained local, making what we had learned as a community bank our business model.
