GLASFORD STATE BANK

Glasford State Bank was established on September 1, 1932, in Glasford, Illinois. Throughout its history, the bank underwent several changes in regulatory status and location. Initially, it was a member of the Federal Reserve System and remained classified as such until February 15, 1966, when it withdrew from the system and became a state-chartered bank not affiliated with the Federal Reserve.
