Description

Article (Worcester Democrat & Ledger-Enterprise, 1934-10-19) refers to G. B. Bradford as Receiver for the Bank of Hampton, assignee of the Accomack Banking Co., Inc. This indicates the bank was in receivership/closed by Oct 1934. The article does not describe any prior run or an explicit suspension action; only a receiver is mentioned. I therefore classify this as a suspension_closure (closure with receiver assigned).
