 By
the summer of 1938, the great depression had closed Hamilton,
Missouri's two banks. Local citizens, merchants and farmers
concerned about the future of the community bought nearly all
of the stock offered in a new bank. L.G. Ehlers, a banker who
had worked in another Missouri bank that had survived the crash,
led the effort. On June 11, 1938, The Hamilton Bank opened to
embody their vision of a safe, convenient, community oriented
depository and lender. That vision has been extended to two more communities with the opening of a bank facility in Breckenridge, Missouri in 1975 and Lathrop, Missouri in 2010.
This is a family owned bank committed to the same principles
that stood to guide our founders four generations ago. Our customers
deserve friendly, personal banking service at all our locations.
Honesty and safety are never to be sacrificed. Technology is
used to speed, diversify and enhance the customer experience. Our communities deserve a banking partner that is active in
the financial development and improvement of their citizens,
farms, merchants and institutions.
The Hamilton Bank continues as an independent community bank
committed to providing exceptional service to its customers.
With corporate offices in Hamilton, all policy and lending decisions
are made locally. Local ownership means local commitment as
the directors and officers have a vested interest in helping
to make our communities a better place to live. |
