First Northeast Bank

First National Bank Northeast was established in 1902, as the First National Bank of Lyons, located in the town of Lyons, Nebraska. In 1974 the current ownership families of Dunlap, Acklie and Hilt combined to purchase the institution from the Langemeier family, etal., adding considerable banking experience and financial strength to the institution. With vision and growth in mind, the bank changed its name to First National Bank Northeast, effective in July of 1993.Since the humble beginnings as an independent bank in Lyons, the assets of the bank have grown to the current asset base. From the start in Lyons, financial services have been expanded to include the communities of Uehling, Tekamah, Hooper, Oakland, Fremont, Hartington and Ceresco.First Northeast Bank has been dedicated to the local rural communities since its original charter all the way through the ownership of the Dunlap-Acklie-Hilt families.
