American National Bank opened for business in May 1983. The original location was at 10 West Main in what is now known as the Colston building. In January 1984 the home office moved to its present location at 1901 North Commerce. In June 2016, ANB changed the bank charter from a National charter to a State charter. The new name, American Nation Bank, was established.
Since the inception of the bank, Jesse Cross has held the position as Chairman of the Board and most of the bank's founders continue as American Nation Bank's directors. Thanks to their strong leadership and progressive ideas, ANB has grown to over $650,000,000 in assets and have ten banking center locations.
