Frances Connecticut Stout (1854-1933) was a successful businesswoman who epitomized African-American determination and strength in Indianapolis. In the late 1880s, Frances and her husband Benjamin became the first African-American stand-holders in the Indianapolis City Market. They developed a substantial clientele in what was known as the "carriage trade" Stout manufactured all of her goods at her home, selling squab, hominy, rabbits, and produce. A lifelong Bethel A.M.E. member, she continued her business after her husband's death in 1909. By the time of her death in 1933, Stout had acquired a considerable estate that was later sold to the city for the construction of Lockefield Gardens.
