We started as a local community bank along the shores of the Northern Neck in the year 1900 with the purpose of helping our neighbors achieve their dreams.
So, here we are, 125 years down the road, still putting our money where our mouth is, backing the businesses and outfits that make our neck of the woods a little bit brighter.

Come and take a gander at how we’re doing more than just counting coins in your neck of the woods. We’re different, and proud of it.
Outreach
Hop in, let’s take a journey to see how we roll up our sleeves, partner with the local school bunch, non-profit warriors, and the folks in government services to help bring a breath of fresh financial freedom to folks without banks or those just getting by. It’s all in a day’s work, really.
