If you still have something from The Citizens Bank of Winigan Missouri
A lien that was never released
The Citizens Bank of Winigan Missouri failed on Mar 7, 1986. For a failed bank placed in FDIC receivership, the FDIC may be able to issue the lien release, if the loan was paid off to the bank before it failed or to the FDIC afterward.
Requests go through the FDIC Information and Support Center with the recorded mortgage or title, and proof of payoff. The FDIC says to allow 30 business days once it has every document, and does not take requests by phone or email. Questions: FDIC Resolution Inquiries, 888-206-4662, 8am–4pm Central on weekdays.
An old account, passbook or CD
The FDIC record shows no bank taking over The Citizens Bank of Winigan Missouri's deposits. In a payoff, insured depositors are paid directly, up to the insurance limit.
This failure is older than the current federal rule on unclaimed deposits (mid-1993), so different rules apply. Search FDIC unclaimed funds search, search the unclaimed-property program of the state of the owner's last known address on the bank's records, and ask FDIC Resolution Inquiries at 888-206-4662 what applies to this institution.
A safe deposit box
In a payoff the FDIC writes to box holders with instructions for removing the contents. For a box never emptied, ask through the FDIC Information and Support Center and check the state's unclaimed-property program.
Box contents are not covered by FDIC insurance.
