Four Oaks Bank is 100-yeas-old.

The bank is celebrating this milestone with various events including a traveling historical exhibit that will be displayed in all of the bank’s locations, according to Pam Ashworth, marking director.

Right now the exhibit is on display in the bank’s Clayton office, 102 E. Main Street until Feb. 24.

This exhibit includes many of the bank’s artifacts, including the original deposit ledger dated June 1, 1912. The original bank seal used on the first stock certificates issued by the bank are also on display. And, this display includes an early coin dispenser and many other historical items.

There are reproductions of many important documents, including the original application for incorporation, the Certificate of Incorporation from the Secretary of State’s office, and one of the first stock certificates issued to the bank’s original cashier.

“We hope that our customers and neighbors will enjoy this display of items from our origin a century ago,” says Ayden R. Lee Jr., the bank’s CEO and president.

“We are proud of our heritage and look forward to celebrating our first 100 years with our customers and our neighbors.”
