Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

     On February 5, 1996, F&M Bancorporation, Inc. ("F&M")
consummated its previously announced acquisition of Monycor
Bankshares, Inc. ("Monycor").  F&M acquired Monycor pursuant to a
Plan and Agreement of Merger and Reorganization dated as of
November 1, 1995, as amended on December 1, 1995 (the
"Agreement").  Under the Agreement, Monycor was merged into a
wholly-owned subsidiary of F&M (the "Merger").  In the Merger,
each of the 2,800 outstanding shares of common stock of Monycor
("Monycor Stock") was converted into shares of F&M Common Stock,
$1.00 par value ("F&M Common"), in a conversion ratio determined
pursuant to a formula set forth in the Agreement.  The formula
resulted in a conversion ratio of 56.2725 shares of F&M Common
for each share of Monycor Stock.  A total of 157,563 shares of
F&M Common was therefore issued in the Merger.  Because of the
maximum $23.00 value of F&M Common Stock under the Agreement
formula, the shares of F&M Common were valued at approximately
$3.6 million in the aggregate for purposes of the Merger.

     The acquisition transaction was negotiated at arm's length
between F&M and the directors of Monycor (none of whom were or
are affiliated with F&M, its affiliates, its directors and
officers and their associates).  F&M is accounting for the Merger
using the pooling of interests method of accounting.

     Monycor is a holding company owning 98.4% of the outstanding
shares of Monycor Bank of Superior, a Wisconsin state bank with
one full service office in Superior, Wisconsin.  Because of the
relative sizes of F&M and Monycor, F&M is not required to provide
herein historical financial statements of Monycor, or pro forma
financial information of F&M reflecting the Merger.  However,
Monycor has supplied the following summary unaudited Monycor
financial information:

                               As of, or for the year ended,
                                       December 31,

Item 5.   Other

     Separately, F&M announced on February 1, 1996 that its
agreement to acquire shares of Peoples State Bank, Bloomer,
Wisconsin, has expired without completion of the transaction. 
Although over 65% of the bank's shareholders had voted to permit
the acquisition to proceed, Peoples State Bank was unable to
obtain the statutorily required approval of the holders of at
least 75% percent of its shares.


Item 7.   Financial Statements and Exhibits

     (a) and (b)  Financial statement filing requirements are not
applicable because Monycor does not meet the significance tests,
as compared to F&M, which would require historical financial
information of Monycor or pro forma financial information of F&M
in this Report.  However, certain summary financial information
of Monycor is included in Item 2.

     (c)  Exhibits   See the Exhibit Index, immediately following

                    MONYCOR BANCSHARES, INC.
                     AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE
         PLAN AND AGREEMENT OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION


     This Amendment No. 1 between F & M Bancorporation, Inc., a
Wisconsin corporation ("F & M"), Monycor Bancshares, Inc., a
Wisconsin corporation ("MBI") and F & M Merger Corporation, a
Wisconsin corporation ("Subsidiary") to amend the Plan and
Agreement of Merger and Reorganization ("the Plan") executed as
of November 1, 1995, is made as of this 1st day of December,
1995.

     WHEREAS, MBI has the opportunity to accelerate the closing
and to save substantial corporate time, money and resources by
structuring the stock issuance by F & M in the proposed
transaction as a private placement under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") and/or Regulation D
thereunder; and

     WHEREAS, MBI and its shareholders have been advised of the
rights, benefits, obligations and limitations of the issuance of
F & M Common as a private placement pursuant to Section 4(2) of
the 1933 Act and/or Regulation D thereunder; and

     WHEREAS, the MBI Shareholders agree that the issuance of
such shares as a private placement, subject to all rights,
obligations and limitations of Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act
and/or Regulation D thereunder is in their best interests and
acknowledge the same by executing this amendment; Therefore,

     In consideration of the foregoing, the parties agree to
amend the Plan as follows:

     1.   Specific Sections Amended.  The following sections of
the Plan are hereby amended:

          (a)  Section 1.18 is deleted and recreated to read as
follows:

               "1.18  'Confidential Memorandum' shall mean the
               Confidential Private Placement Memorandum which
               will be delivered to the MBI Shareholders
               describing the Merger.  The F & M Common to be
               issued in this transaction will not be registered
               with the Securities and Exchange Commission
               ("SEC") or the Securities Commission of any state
               but will be issued pursuant to the exemptions from
               (and subject to the limitations under) applicable
               federal and state securities laws.  Wherever the
               term Registration Statement is used in this
               Agreement, the term 'Confidential Memorandum'
               shall be substituted."


          (b)  Section 3.7 is created to read as follows:

               "3.7 Stock Legend.  The shares of F & M Common to
               be issued in this transaction will be issued
               pursuant to an exemption from registration under
               Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and the regulations
               thereunder, and will be subject to a transfer
               limitation for two (2) years from the date of
               issuance pursuant, thereto and thereafter subject
               to limitation on the manner and volume of shares
               which can be transferred before the end of three
               (3) years from the date of issuance.  The
               certificates for the shares of F & M Common to be
               issued will bear the following legend restricting
               their transfer:

                    THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THE
                    CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
                    UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
                    AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY
                    STATES, BUT HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE
                    UPON EXEMPTIONS THEREFROM.  THEY HAVE
                    BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT
                    BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF
                    AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
                    UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND THE
                    LAWS OF ANY STATE IN WHICH THEY ARE
                    OFFERED OR SOLD, OR AN OPINION OF
                    COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO F & M (UNLESS
                    WAIVED BY IT) THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT
                    REQUIRED UNDER SUCH LAWS."


          (c)  Section 4.1 is amended to add the following to the
end of the Section:

               "All MBI Shareholders are bona fide residents of

               through the Closing Date.  All MBI Shareholders
               will certify such status to F & M as of the
               Closing Date."

               which they were made, not misleading; except that
               this representation and warranty shall not apply
               to statements contained in or omitted from the
               Confidential Memorandum/Proxy Statement in so far
               as they describe F & M or Subsidiary."

               or omit any material fact required to be stated

               "(a)  As promptly as practicable after the
               execution of this Agreement, F & M, with the
               cooperation of MBI, shall prepare the Confidential
               Memorandum.  F & M shall also use its best efforts
               to qualify under the blue sky laws of the various
               states in which MBI shareholders are located, the
               shares of F & M Common to be issued pursuant to
