About

Our Story

Founded in 1900 near Pryor Creek as the First National Bank of Pryor Creek, the institution began serving its community at a time when Oklahoma was still Indian Territory — seven years before statehood. From its earliest days, the bank stood as a pillar of stability, trust, and local leadership for families and businesses across the region.

Built on relationship-driven banking and community commitment, the bank faithfully served Oklahoma for more than a century. In 2000, it transitioned to a state charter and soon after expanded into Bixby in 2002, extending its hometown approach into the growing Tulsa metro area.

Today, we proudly enter a new chapter as stg-pryoritybank-staging.kinsta.cloud — with renewed purpose and sharpened focus on the “Y.”

At stg-pryoritybank-staging.kinsta.cloud, the “Y” represents You.

Your business.
Your family.
Your future.
Your legacy.

We believe banking should never feel transactional—it should feel personal. Our mission is to empower individuals, families, and businesses to grow with confidence through local decision-making, trusted relationships, and financial solutions built around your goals.

The name has evolved, but our commitment remains unchanged: putting You first, every time.

A Legacy of Family Leadership

The story of stg-pryoritybank-staging.kinsta.cloud is also a story of generational stewardship.

The bank was founded by W.A. Graham and later succeeded by his son, establishing a foundation of family leadership. In time, ownership transitioned to Nolan Jacobs and then to his son, J. Michael Jacobs, who continued the tradition of principled, relationship-centered banking until his retirement in 2009.

Today, the bank is led by second-generation banker Aaron Dillard, continuing the powerful legacy of father-and-son leadership. The Dillard family partnered with the Jacobs family to preserve and strengthen the institution’s heritage — ensuring that stg-pryoritybank-staging.kinsta.cloud remains rooted in community, continuity, and long-term vision.

What began as a bank in Indian Territory has become a multi-generational commitment to Oklahoma families and businesses.

More than a rebrand, stg-pryoritybank-staging.kinsta.cloud represents the continuation of a 125+ year legacy — where leadership is local, relationships matter, and You remain at the center of it all. We strive every day to accomplish our mission statement “to faithfully enrich the lives of our community, clients, co-workers, and shareholders.”
