Waccamaw Bank
& Duplin County
The opening of an office In
1936 at 120 East Church Street
In Rose Hill marked the begin
ning of a strong relationship
between Waccamaw Bank and
the citizens of Dqplin County
and surrounding areas. This
relationship was further strai
ghtened with the establishment
of a Wacca maw Bank in Ke
nan as ville id August, 1940. It
was completed when W?c
camaw's Chinquapin office be
gan functioning in August of
flee vfnlch was established In
April of 1951. With all four
Duplin County operations
housed in new or remodeled
physical facilities, and with the
banks being operated by proven
officers and staffs, it Is rather
obvious that Waccamaw Bank
has a policy geared to enhance
the growth and progress of the
nansvllle Baptist Church, and
the Rev. Troy Mullis, pastor of
Grove Church. The public is
Invited to attend.
Eastes Service
A special Easter service will
be held at Smith's Presbyterian
Church. Easter Sunday at 9 a.m.
The public is invited to attend.
Notice
I. L. Clayton, Commissioner
of Revenue, has announced that
the deadline for filing State tax
returns has been extended from
midnight April 15,1968 to mid

area* as well as the "bank.
Presently with 25 offices (the
Rose Hill office was die fourth
to be established) In 18 commu
nities covering seven counties
in Eastern ana Southeastern
North Carolina, Waccamaw
Bank opened its first office in
Whlteville in March of 1926.
Th e bank was organized with
Initial capital of $37,600.
In the past seven years, die
tot al resources have more than
doubled - from $37,717,123 to
$80,151,089, The bank Is now of
sufficient slzd to offer complete
commercial banking services
with all types of loans for bu
siness, agriculture and indus
try. Waccamaw has a complete
Trust Department, an active
F arm Management Department
and is in the process of being
able to offer certain automated
services to businesses.
Total capital of the bank is
now $6,499 471 and permanent
capital has been' increased
which has raised the legal loan
- limit to any one borrower to
$575,000. Wnile it is bmkpolicy
to make sound loans, every ef
fort is made to utilize funds
in the local economy in order
to Improve our area.
Firmly realizing its obliga
tion to its depositors, employ
ees, stockholders, aid the ci
tizens of this area, the Wac
camaw Bmk has both short
and long-range plans to acce
lerate its own growth, and at
the same time to stimulate ,
sound, overall economic growth 4
in Eastern Carolina. Certainly
Duplin County will continue to
be a very integral aspect of
Waccamaw Bank's plans for the
future.
