In 1864 a group known as the "Four Georgians" (consisting of John Cowan, D. J. Miller, John Crab, and Robert Stanley), stumbled upon gold in what is now Helena's main street. The claim was staked and named Last Chance Gulch. By 1888, an estimated 50 millionaires made Helena their home. Last Chance Gulch produced an estimated $3.6 billion (in today's dollars) in gold over a 20-year period. See our
Community Links page to find out more about Helena, Montana.
In addition to its main bank on Prospect Avenue, American Federal
has a branch office at the base of Last Chance Gulch. Located at
28 Neill Avenue, the branch opened its doors in 1987 and just recently
added a drive up ATM and a Personal Banker to their list of services.
