First Financial Bankshares, Inc.

A Texas community-banking company, First Financial Bankshares runs First Financial Bank, which handles checking and savings accounts, loans, and wealth-management and trust services for everyday customers and businesses. It began in 1890 in Abilene as Farmers and Merchants National Bank, opened by former Confederate general F.W. James, and took its current name in 1993 when it listed on the stock exchange. On its very first day of business the young bank took in thousands of dollars in deposits from a frontier town of about three thousand people.
