TriStar Bank Revenue and Competitors

Following the sale of Peoples Bank to First American National Bank, Ted Williams and four other Peoples Bank Directors decided to charter a new bank in Dickson County. It is the first time in approximately 50 years that a new bank had been chartered in the county. Four of the Directors included Melissa Street, Noah Daniel, Phil Hall and Jerry Smith. Additionally, the group invited Tom Waychoff to join the group and be its sixth organizer. These six individuals began preparing the necessary documents to gain approval from the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions to have a stock offering for what would become TriStar Bank, with the help of Attorney Brian Ragan and Attorney Katie Edge.
