Oak Hill Banks is an Ohio-chartered commercial bank with 36 banking offices and one loan office in central and southern Ohio.

The Beginning
The company traces its origins to the founding in 1902 of The Oak Hill Savings Bank Company. Organized by businessman D. D. Davis in the Village of Oak Hill, Ohio, the bank was one of thousands of independent banks that were established in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s to meet the growing financial needs of their communities.

Growth during the early years was slow but steady. The bank became “full service” (by the standards of the time) with the introduction of savings accounts in 1905, and by 1913 it had grown to the point that a move to a larger facility was necessary.

One of the bank’s finest hours came during the Great Depression. Although thousands of banks closed during the 1930’s, The Oak Hill Savings Bank Company remained open throughout this dismal period.
