The New Canaan Savings Bank was incorporated in 1859 and it was initially located at the office of Selleck Y. St. John, the Bank’s treasurer. The bank mostly likely next shared quarters with the First National Bank and Trust Company of New Canaan, established in 1865, of which St. John was cashier. The bank moved to its own building in 1929, which is now a branch of Chase Bank.
