The First National Bank of Anson

Overview:

On January 11, 1902, the U.S. Treasury Department issued
Charter No. 6091 to the First National Bank of Anson, Anson,
Texas, authorizing them to commence banking. The bank
continues to operate to this date under the same charter and
the same name, being the only bank in Jones County to
survive the depression era without reorganization and/or
recapitalization. During the period since organization, the bank
has not only continuously operated under the same charter and
same name, but is the only surviving bank in Anson*,
having acquired the assets of three other failed banks. In 1902
it purchased the Jones County Bank, in 1915 the Farmers and
Merchants National Bank, and in 1930 the First State Bank.
credit for its success is given to its continuous strong
management, and successor management training.

R.R. Shapard was the first president for a short period of 2 years, followed by C.H. Steele, who served until his resignation in 1916. R.R. Shapard then returned for four years, and in 1920 C.H. Steele's brother, J.J. Steele became president and served until 1945. He was succeeded by J.H. Warren who served until J.H. Fry became president in 1956, and during his tenure the bank's present quarters were built in 1959. Dan McLaren was elected president in 1968 and served in that capacity until his retirement in 1984. In the meantime,
in 1977 a control group headed by Jim Heidenheimer purchased
the bank, and he was elected Chairman of the Board and served as
Chief Executive Officer. His son, Mitch Heidenheimer became
president in 1994.
