History

Established in 1889.

In 1889, the town of Somerset, described by a newspaper at that time as «an aggressive mountain town», was growing with a population of almost 4,000. Businessmen and community leaders realized the emerging need for a local bank if their community was to continue to thrive. Congressman and Civil War veteran Edward Scull, and the fourth of his six sons, George R. Scull, turned that vision into a reality when they established what was to become Somerset Trust Company.

That independent community vision still exists today at Somerset Trust has remained unchanged for over 100 years. Now under the leadership and guidance of the fifth generation of the Scull family, the bank has endeavored to enhance the traditional qualities of community banking by effectively using technology to support excellent service to customers.
