Description
1902 Series Ten Dollar Plain Back THE FIRST NB OF HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK OF WEST VIRGINIA. CHARTER #3106
Surrounded by extensive natural resources, the area was first settled in 1775 as Holderby’s Landing. Its location was selected as ideal for the western terminus of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, which founded Huntington as one of the nation’s first planned communities to facilitate transportation industries. The city quickly developed after the railroad’s completion in 1871 and is eponymously named for the railroad company’s founder, Collis Potter Huntington. The city became a hub for manufacturing, transportation, and industrialization, with an industrial sector based in coal, oil, chemicals and steel. After World War II, due to the shutdown of these industries, the city lost nearly 46% of its population, from a peak of 86,353 in 1950 to 54,844 in 1990.
