Stonington Bank was chartered in 1822 and operated out of Stonington, Connecticut, a small coastal borough whose economy ran on fishing, whaling, and the Stonington Railroad. By the 1850s the bank was a modest but functional institution, and its notes circulated primarily across New London County rather than at any distance — regional acceptance was the practical reality for most Connecticut country bank paper of this period.
Danforth, Wright & Co. was one of the principal security engravers serving American state banks before the National Banking Acts of 1863–64 effectively killed the obsolete note trade. The firm maintained offices in both New York and Philadelphia and was a direct predecessor to the American Bank Note Company.
