The best shot yet of the
St. Vincent-Pembina ferry; the only way for most residents to traverse the river for business or pleasure before there were bridges.
Yes, believe it or not, St. Vincent once had a bank!
NOTE: Photos supplied by descendents of the Gamble Family
The name of the St. Vincent bank was "Farmers & Merchants State Bank" - from what I can make out on the glass of the window, it appears to have signage on it that says: Farm Loans, Real Estate, Insurance, and one other word I cannot make out or hazard a guess at - if anyone reading this can offer a logical reading, please post here in comments. Thanks!
