Leroy Tuttle was the cashier and the teller was A.U. Wyman. The bank folded on Sep. 23, 1857. The Bank of Nebraska was the only other institution awarded a charter by the Nebraska Legislature.The Bishop Hill Colony was a group of Jansonists who had immigrated from Sweden. They were a communal society that pursued<i> Utopia </i>in Illinois and scouted other areas such as Nebraska. The group disbanded in 1861. Increasing dissension in the previous years led the Bishop Hill Colony to be called the &quot;Bishop Hell Colony&quot; by many. The notes were a product of Danforth, Wright &amp; Co., a predecessor of ABNCo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
