Felton Jenkins Joins Decatur First Bank Board.


MADISON, Ga. -- Respected Georgia attorney and Morgan County Morgan County is the name of a number of counties in the United States of America, generally named for Daniel Morgan, Revolutionary War General:
  • Morgan County, Alabama
  • Morgan County, Colorado
  • Morgan County, Georgia
  • Morgan County, Illinois
 resident Felton Jenkins has been named to the Board of Directors of Decatur First Bank, strengthening the financial institution and its relationship with Morgan County.

Two years ago, Decatur First Bank introduced Lake Oconee Community Bank in Madison in order to provide banking services on a personal level to the residents and businesses of Morgan County and the surrounding region. One year ago, the bank expanded by opening a Loan Production Office on Eatonton Road. In keeping with its commitment to serve and be part of the community, Lake Oconee Community Bank announced last month that it would launch the Bank of Morgan County. The name change further shows the bank's commitment to provide a personal touch to everything it does to serve the fine people of the Madison and Morgan County area.

"In addition to being one of the most successful business executives in the region, Felton has had a stellar career with one of the nation's leading law firms - King and Spalding," commented Dr. Bobbie Bailey, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Decatur First Bank Group Inc., and Decatur First Bank. "His business acumen and legal expertise, in addition to his ties to the community, will be of immense benefit to the bank and its customers."

"I'm honored and pleased to join Decatur First's Board," said Jenkins. "While this bank is relatively new to Madison and Morgan County, I think we will see it grow a great deal very quickly as it begins operating here under its new name, Bank of Morgan County, as a division of Decatur First. I'm excited to be a part of this new opportunity."
