Our History

Our banking journey began in 1973, when a group of investors organized by Charles T. “Chuck” Doyle, Chairman Emeritus, purchased First State Bank of Hitchcock. The group set goals and successfully established a network of community banks in all ten incorporated cities in Galveston County by the end of the Twentieth Century.

By the end of 1999, part of Doyle’s vision became a reality: Texas First Bank could be found in all thirteen cities in Galveston County.

Now, four decades after first opening its doors, Texas First Bank operates 27 banking centers and 52 ATM locations in Southeast Texas across seven counties—Brazoria, Chambers, Galveston, Harris, Jefferson, Liberty, and Montgomery.
