Hebron, located in Morton County, was a one-bank town and a small issuer that wasn't chartered until May 1915. They issued only 1,825 sheets of large size notes and there are just four survivors. The paper quality of this example could be a bit nicer for the grade. Purple stamped signatures of L.A. Tavis, President and G.H. Leick, Cashier. Hebron, in Morton County, is in the Bismarck metro area. The population was 747 at the 2010 census. The community was named for the city in the West Bank. The post office was established October 22, 1885 when Postmaster Charles Krauth moved his Knife River post office here from its original location one mile to the west. Ferdinand Leutz (1854-1934) is generally considered to be the town's founder, with the first influx of settlers coming here from Johannestal, Crimea, South Russia. The city, which incorporated in 1916 with Peter S. Jungers mayor, reached a peak population of 1,412 in 1950. Hebron is called "The Brick City," noting the famous Hebron Brick Company, which was established here in 1904.
