WOLF POINT, MONTANA
Montana ...
First Bank Were Gold Dust Depositories
During the Civil War in 1863 an lowa busineiuman, B. T. Allen of
Dec Moines, hit mind Intent on the needs of a new nation that would
be built on the ashes of the old, turned his interests to the vast Im
portance of Montana.
The Allen idea was the establishment of bank in the mining areas
of Montana. With this thought he journeyed to Omaha where he in
terested J. H. Millard to lend his services in the new venture. Allen
and Millard reasoned that the miners would not only welcome an
opportunity to sell their gold, but also the opportunity to place their
money In a bank safe.
While the stories of the gold strike in Bannack, probably inspired
the two pioneer bankers to plan their investment in Montana, Alder
Gulch had forged front while they were working out details so
that the distinction of being the site of the first bank In Montana, fell
to Virginia City — along with numerous other “firsts" — Instead of to
Bannack.
It took a year to put the plan into operation. Mr. Millard came to
Virginia City and proceeded to erect a one-story stone building. The
bank opened its doors Sept. 17, 1864. The first building housed the
bank until 1922. How many tons of gold dust and Ingots went through
its doors can be only a matter of speculation.
