First American Bank and Trust, a Louisiana bank chartered in 1910 as Bank of Vacherie, is a subsidiary of One American Corp . Having grown far beyond the boundaries of the town from which it's name was derived, it became necessary to officially change the name to First American Bank and Trust in January 1978.
