Inscription.
William and Lucy Wagoner were born and married in Tennessee. They had no children but raised a cousin, Frank Parks, who came with them to Frisco in late 1902. Mr. Wagoner had one of the first livery stables in Frisco on Main Street. In December 1910, the Wagoner’s purchased over 4 acres at this site and built this home in 1911 where they lived for the remainder of their lives. Because the home was custom designed, it displays a variety of architectural styles mainly Foursquare with a Queen Anne wrap around porch. William Wagoner had the first established funeral home in Frisco at this location where he made caskets and stored his horse drawn funeral coach in the barn. In 1911, Mr. Wagoner served a one-year term on the Frisco City Council. Mrs. Wagoner was a charter member of Frisco Chapter #93 of the Order of the Eastern Star. Known for her cooking and hospitality skills, Lucy Wagoner opened her home to boarders in the 1920s. William and Lucy Wagoner along with Frank Parks are buried in the old Bethel Cemetery in Frisco.
