The Payne County Bank was incorporated January 3, 1898, nine years before Oklahoma's Statehood. With original capital stock of $5,000, the bank operated in a wood frame structure at the northwest corner of what is now Main and Thomas streets for about four years. With the construction of a new native sandstone building in 1903, the bank made the southwest corner of Main and Thomas streets in Perkins its home for nearly seventy years
Payne County Bank and the First State Bank of Perkins were merged on December 31, 1924. It was with this merger that the legendary Delbert C. Butler became associated with Payne County Bank. D. C. would later become president of PCB in 1941, and served in that capacity for over thirty years.
Throughout 1998, the bank celebrated its Centennial. During the year, the Bank underwent a full-scale remodeling project and 2500 square-foot building addition. The addition consisted primarily of office space, plus a 30-seat community business meeting room. 100th anniversary year was also marked by a series of events including exciting new service announcements, promotional giveaways, prize drawings, and an October Open House and free barbecue dinner. Today, PCB operates as a 100% employee-owned community bank.
