The association was founded in 1867 by a former slave, Mary Prout, to assist the sick and aged, and to bury its members. Under the leadership of Walker, the Society became involved in various business interests, including the ownership of the largest African-American bank in Richmond, Virginia. Maggie Lena Mitchell (1867-1934) was born in Richmond, Virginia. Her mother was formerly enslaved, and her father was an Irish-born abolitionist and journalist. "At the age of 14 she joined the local council of the Independent Order of St. Luke, a fraternal burial society, established in 1867, in Baltimore, administered to the sick and aged, promoted humanitarian causes and encouraged individual self-help and integrity." According to the National Women's History Museum, in 1902 Mrs. Walker established a newspaper, *The St. Luke Herald* and founded the St. Luke Penny Savings Bank in 1903 where she served as the bank's first president becoming the first woman to charter a bank in the United States. Later the bank merged with two other Richmond banks to become The Consolidated Bank and Trust Company, the oldest continually African American-operated bank in the United States that continues to this day.
