SINCE 1906 BURTON STATE BANK
has offered the citizens of Burton and the surrounding area the quality, professional services you would expect from a full service bank.

The Bank was organized by 18 gentlemen who joined together to purchase 100 shares of stock at $100 per share in May of 1906. The resulting $10,000 was the beginning of a successful financial venture for shareholders and customers of the Bank.

Burton State Bank received a charter from the State Banking Department on May 18, 1906 and is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

In 1965 the bank moved from its original location to its present site at 515 North Main. In April 1999, the Bank completed an extensive re-modeling project to meet the demands created by its continued growth.

Burton State Bank has elected to participate in the Federal Government's Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Through this program, the FDIC fully insures 100 percent of deposits that are held in non-interest bearing deposit transaction accounts at Burton State Bank, regardless of the dollar amount, through December 31, 2009.

After December 31, 2009, funds held in noninterest-bearing transaction accounts will no longer be guaranteed in full under the Transaction Account Guarantee program, but will be insured up to $250,000 under the FDIC’s general deposit insurance rules.
