Fannie Price Houx was born in Bedford County, VA on April 20, 1835 to Nathaniel H. and Ann "Nancy" Lee. She was the second youngest of eleven children. She moved to Lafayette Co., MO with her family as a child. She married George Washington Houx in 1850 in Johnson County, MO and they had seven children. William P, Frank Lee, Kate E Price Gunter Luce, Anna Eliz. Gunter Branstetter. Oro S. Burgan, Carrie and George D. Price.
Their home was in Higginsville, MO where George built a large brick home which stands today and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Fannie is famous in Missouri as she was taken to prison during the Civil War because she was accused by a slave of mistreatment even though witnesses said the slave was lying. She served time with her youngest child in her arms.
She was also the mother of Frank Lee Houx who served as Govenor of the State of Wyoming.
No headstone was erected for Fannie which is odd for someone who lived such a colorful life. The photo of graves posted here is just of the general area where Fannie is buried. She was not a Quaker as someone here indicated, what an odd thing to add to someones memorial when they do not have the facts.
