Exhibit 31.1

                          SECTION 302 CERTIFICATION

I, Raymond Walter, certify that:

     1.   I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of
          Jeffersonville Bancorp;

     2.   Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any
          untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
          fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
          circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading
          with respect to the period covered by this quarterly report;

     3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other
          financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly
          present in all material respects the financial condition, results
          of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the
          periods presented in this quarterly report;

     4.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for
          establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
          defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
          registrant and we have:

          a)   designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused
               such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under
               our supervision, to ensure that material information relating
               to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
               made known to us by others within those entities, particularly
               during the period in which this quarterly report is being
               prepared;

          b)   evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure
               controls and procedures and presented in this report our
               conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
               and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this
               report based on such evaluation; and

          c)   disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's
               internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
               the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter that has
               materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
               affect, the registrant's internal control over financial
               reporting; and

     5.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed,
          based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
          financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit
          committee of registrant's board of directors (or persons performing
          the equivalent functions):

          a)   all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
               design or operation of internal control over financial
               reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the
               registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report
               financial information; and

          b)   any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
               or other employees who have a significant role in the
               registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
