Kentland Bank has been operating as an independent community financial institution for over nine decades, having been officially established in the fall of 1932. Born out of the severe economic challenges of the Great Depression—following the devastating collapse of the local Newton County State Bank in 1931—visionary founders Glen C. Tolin and Edgar Teague pooled their resources to restore a reliable banking presence to Kentland, Indiana. Over its history spanning more than 90 years, the institution has expanded from its single hometown office into multiple branches across surrounding counties, maintaining an unwavering commitment to personalized customer care, small business financing, and community support.
