Baylands Federal Credit Union has opened a branch in the Quinton area of New Kent County.

Located at 2111 Pocahontas Trail, the community-chartered credit union lives by a motto and “believe in helping families live better lives.” The credit union has given back to schools, non-profit organizations, and local community events. It is also a not-for-profit financial cooperative owned by its members.

Baylands FCU is insured by the National credit Union Administration and credit of the U.S. Government. The financial institution was chartered on Jan. 22, 1946 by a group of nine employees of what was then known as Chesapeake Corporation of Virginia in West Point with the intention to promote thrift among its members and provide loans to members for provident purposes. Baylands Credit Union’s first location was established in West Point and accept members from eight counties: New Kent, James City, King William, King & Queen, Middlesex, Essex, Gloucester, and Mathews.

Accounts are eligible to people who live, work, worship, or attend school in New Kent County or any of the aforementioned localities. For information, visit one of the three branches (West Point, New Kent, or Norge), call (888) 843-2520, or visit www.baylandsfcu.org.
