All information I could dig up, was the building was built in 1904...the bank existed since about 1873...but was once in a general store, then another location then built this brick edifice.
A photo in the gallery says it was taken in the late 1800s, text by MDC; but state archives state the photo was taken in 1900s by Bill Todd and is on file in the State Historical Society of Missouri, Columbia, and I have used with permission.
