The Freedman’s Savings and Trust Company, popularly known as the Freedman’s Bank, was incorporated by Congress on March 3, 1865, and the bank maintained some 37 offices in 17 states, including the District of Columbia.
Because of mismanagement, abuse, fraud, and other economic factors, the Freedman’s Bank failed in 1874, leaving tens of thousands of its depositors in economic ruin. Learn more about these records at the FamilySearch Research Wiki.
