History
Bradford National Bank was founded in 1867 by James Bradford and his son, Samuel. The strong foundation the Bradfords provided enabled the bank to withstand numerous threatening times, surviving when many other banks were forced to close their doors. In September 1998, Bradford National Bank opened its first Branch outside of Bond County. The Marine Banking Center was opened at 155 N. Duncan in Marine. On May 15, 2002, Bradford National Bank broke ground on its new Highland facility. It officially opened its doors October 28, 2002. Today, Bradford National Bank continues to grow in the tradition started 152 years ago and now has assets over $300 million with four full service locations. We are a very safe and secure community bank.
