Northern Insuring Agency, Inc. History

Northern Insuring Agency, Inc. was founded in 1930 by three Au Sable Forks businessmen: I. H. Chahoon, Walter R. Hildreth and Frank L. Kemp. In 1933, E. Glenn Giltz joined the business becoming President in 1941. His dedication to excellence and high ethical standards combined with good business judgment were the driving forces behind much of Northern's growth and success. Following in his footsteps were Roderic Giltz in 1985 and Deena Giltz McCullough in 2008.

From its original branch office in Au Sable Forks, the Plattsburgh office was established in 1934, and the Whitehall office was added in 1980. The Massena office was purchased from John Storey in 1983.

Today, Northern Insuring Agency, Inc. services Upstate New York and Vermont with a full range of insurance and employee benefits products and services. We look forward to continuing our over 80 year tradition of providing dedicated, friendly, locally based services to our North Country neighbors.
