Howardville is a city in New Madrid County, Missouri, United States. The population was 383 at the 2010 census.

History

Howardville was founded by Travis B. Howard, a prominent black educator and activist in the mid-20th century Bootheel region. A graduate of Tuskegee Institute, Howard was inspired by Booker T. Washington's belief that land ownership was among the critical factors in lifting African Americans out of poverty. In the late 1940s, Howard purchased {{convert|200|acre|ha}} of land encompassing much of what is now Howardville, and sold off lots to displaced black sharecroppers. The city incorporated as "Howardville" in 1953.[3]

Howardville High School, initially known as East Lilbourn High School, opened in 1958. After county schools were integrated in the late 1960s, the school operated as a junior high school until 1980. In 2017, the school was nominated for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.[3]

Travis Howard was the father of Major League Baseball player Elston Howard, the first black player to join the New York Yankees.[4]
