The First State Bank

Most people believed there money was safe
Until 1929
After that the Great Depression
Was not that far behind.



      Oh Daisy, you're out of luck. It's no longer a bank, it's a winery. You can't withdraw any of that, either.
    The bank was built in 1906 and its location is at 211 Liberty. The banks hay-day was in 1917 with assets totaling $191,000. But after the Great Depression, its assets were a little over 18,000. The bank was robbed and then voluntarily liquidated in 1923.
  

   Well academics were never my thing but I guess all go. but only if daisy can come. Next stop, the Olde School House.
