Baker, Louisiana

History, Historic House

Would you care for a glass of lemonade and a little conversation? A visit to our small town and its museum is something like a visit to your Grandmother's home and her home town. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. Enjoy the porch swing. Step inside the front door and it's a little like entering a time machine, like traveling back 100 year to a simpler time. A time of one room schools, the country store, the kitchen garden. Sit in the shade of the big tree and wait for the afternoon train to pass. You can almost forget that the world is passing by at 45 mph on a five lane state highway. You can almost hear the birds chirping, the clinking of the blacksmith's hammer on his anvil. Drop in, sit a while, have a glass of lemonade. And remember.

Hermione Museum
Tallulah, Louisiana

Cemetery, General, History, Historic House, Historical Society, Library

Hermione House was built in 1855 and now serves as the headquarters for the Madison Historical Society, Inc., and home to Madison Parish History. The antebellum home was completely restored as a museum and donated to the Historical Society in 1997. It showcases period pieces and exhibits depicting the history of the parish, including artifacts from the Civil War and also from the ancient Indian civilizations that once populated the area. Madison Parish is also the birthplace of Madam C. J. Walker, a self-made millionaire. Born Sarah Breedlove in 1867 to sharecropper parents in Delta, Louisiana, Walker built her wealth in cosmetics and used her prominence to support civic, educational, and social aid for African Americans.
