Sycamore Bank

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sycamore Bank, based in Senatobia, Mississippi, is a regional bank with assets exceeding $170 million[1] and locations across North Mississippi.

Branches in Senatobia, Southaven, Coldwater, Hernando, and Independence[2] serve customers in these communities as well as residents of the broader Memphis, Tennessee area.

[edit] History

In 1900 a group of 35 local businessmen and farmers established Senatobia Bank.[3]

As the bank grew beyond Senatobia, it was renamed Sycamore Bank[4] as a reference to its Senatobia roots (the town's name is derived from the Native American Senatohoba, which means White Sycamore, a symbol of rest for the weary).[5] The bank has also since added a wholly owned mortage company,[6] Sycamore Mortgage Company, Inc.
