The story

First Citizens' Federal Credit Union was originally organized as Bristol Credit Union on November 17, 1937, as a state chartered community credit union serving employees and/or residents of Bristol County, Massachusetts. The name was changed to Citizens' Credit Union during a charter expansion that extended the credit union's allowed field of membership to include the Massachusetts counties of Bristol, Plymouth, Barnstable, Dukes, Nantucket and Norfolk. In 1987, the credit union's state charter was converted to a federal charter. At the same time, the credit union deposits became federally insured. A new name was chosen, First Citizens' Federal Credit Union, which remains today.
