About Us
FNBL is the oldest nationally chartered bank in the state of Connecticut, created by the founding fathers at the birth of our country. Benjamin Tallmadge, George Washington's spymaster during the Revolutionary War, was one of our founding directors. FNBL was organized in 1814 as a branch of the Phoenix Bank of Hartford, and then reorganized in 1864 as The First National Bank of Litchfield.
During the first half of the 1800s, the Bank enjoyed steady business as profits grew, despite the War of 1812 and some opposition to the Bank from the community. During the latter half of the 1800s, the Bank prospered and was able to declare regular dividends to its shareholders.
