Information

Thankfully, this building is there but it is now private property.

Photograph of Henryville State Bank circa 1910 located at the northwest corner of Main Street and Railroad Street (created after one set of tracks was removed) . The bank faced the railroad tracks and opened in 1904 before merging with New Washington State Bank in 1942. The building is now only one-story. In 1948 a tornado may have been the reason the second floor was lost. This building has a long and colorful past; having at one time been an Episcopal church, a leather shop and a thrift shop. It has since become a single family residence.

According to Baird's History of Clark County; "The Henryville State Bank was organized February 11, 1904, and began business March 17, 1904.....The capital stock is twenty-five thousand dollars, and its present surplus and undivided profits are five thousand dollars. The first president was Edward L. Elrod, George Bollinger, vice-president, and W. Wayne Wilson, cashier."
