Amelia Louise Tilghman

Career

December 1887, the faculty of The Howe Institute in New Iberia, Louisiana, asked Tilghman to lead its music department. She accepted, but only stayed a year, returning to Washington, D.C., to care for her ailing mother.^[1]

The Howe Institute in New Iberia, Louisiana, was a boarding school organized for young black men. John Franklin Browne (1850–1939), then of Berea College, was in charge of the institute during the start-up phase.

It was sponsored by the Union 6th District Missionary Baptist Association, with Mr. Jonas Henderson, Sr., principal and a dedicated staff of professionals. The school endured from 1890 to 1933. The institute was named after Peter Howe (1816–1888), a benefactor from Wenona, Illinois.</ref>
