The Tillman House is a historic house in Natchez, Mississippi, USA.

History

The Tillman House was built from 1834 to 1837 by Joseph Neibert and Peter Gemmell. In 1837, it was purchased by Lemuel P. Rooks. Roughly a decade later, in 1845, it was purchased by Dr. Charles H. Dubs, a dentist from Philadelphia. In the midst of the American Civil War, in 1862, the house was purchased by Joseph Tillman and his wife Ricca, a Jewish couple who had come to Natchez in 1843. It was subsequently inherited by their son, Cassius L. Tillman, Sr., who served as the treasurer of Adams County.

Architectural significance

It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 17, 1979.
