Henry Evans Litchford was born in Ra- leigh, North Carolina, February 4, 1866. He was there educated in the public schools and in the Raleigh Male Academy. In August, 1882, after leaving school, he became em- ployed as office boy in the Citizens' National Bank, of Raleigh, North Carolina, and re- mained with that institution until July i, 1912. During these thirty years he filled all the positions in the bank's employ from that in which he entered to the office of cashier, his capacity and diligent application winning him successive promotions, and in his highest position, that of cashier, he made efficient and highly satisfactory administra- tion of the bank's finances. On July i, 1912, Mr. Litchford accepted his present place as vice-president and treasurer of the Old Do- minion Trust Company, in which service his talents have found a wider field and op- portunity for greater endeavor. That he would be an officer of value to the Richmond institution was confidently predicted by his business associates of former j'ears, and the two years that he has passed in his present position have fulfilled this promise and have added to it further expectations. Mr. Litch- ford retains his interest in business affairs of the city of his birth in his membership of the board of directors of the Raleigh Sav- ings Bank and Trust Company. He is a Democrat in politics, on many issues cast- ing his vote independent of party dictates, and holds membership in the Westmoreland and Country clubs of Richmond, and in the Business Men's Club.
