Hussey, Dahler & Co. was a Salt Lake City, Utah-based bank with branches in Helena and Virginia City, Montana Territory. Senior partner Warren Hussey was born in Indiana in 1835. In 1861 he moved to Denver, Colorado, and opened a bank, Warren Hussey and Co. Junior partner Charles L. Dahler was born near Dusseldorf, Prussia, and immigrated with his family to the U.S. in 1839. In 1858, he joined the Colorado gold rush, and later became Hussey's partner, opening their Virginia City and Helena branches in May 1866.
