Kaw Valley Bank has been a part of Topeka for over 150 years, with its roots starting in Oakland and eventually growing in North Topeka and later city wide. The banks original name was Oakland State Bank.

In the 1920s Glenn Swogger Sr. and his father J.S. Swogger purchased Oakland State Bank where it was a storefront bank with a family living headquarters in the back. The bank eventually grew through the consolidation of Oakland State Bank with Kaw Valley National Bank, Shawnee State Bank and Kaw Valley Citizens State Bank. When Kaw Valley National Bank was purchased in 1933 the new location became 844 North Kansas Ave. (which is now known as Bradley's Corner Cafe), and assumed the name Kaw Valley State Bank. A new bank location was built in 1965 in North Topeka at 1110 North Kansas Ave. This location is known today as the Kaw Valley Bank headquarters.

Glen Swogger Sr. remained the chairman and President of Kaw Valley State Bank until his retirement in 1982 at the age of 86. At that time Gerald Lauber, who started his career at the bank in 1972 while attending college and working his way up from Teller to Lending, was named as the President while Swogger Jr, M.D. was named the Chairman. Dr Swogger also served as Director of the Will Menninger Center. He was on staff with the Menninger Clinic for 22 years. In January of 2007 Kaw Valley State Bank and Trust formally shortened its name to Kaw Valley Bank.
