John B. Price, (1822-1895) a wholesale lumber dealer, was the primary owner of Hannibal’s Park Hotel. The building stood on the northwest corner of Center and Fourth streets from roughly 1880, until the building was consumed by fire in mid April 1899. 

While Price and his partner, Dubach, maintained ownership of the hotel, a long series of lessees tried their hand at turning a profit from the business. 

On Aug. 24, 1893, the Palmyra Spectator surmised: “This hotel seems to be a Jonah as almost every man who leases it loses money.”

Palmyra was platted in 1819 and named after the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria. The settlement was designated county seat in 1827. A post office called Palmyra has been in operation since 1830. 

In 1862, the city was the scene of the Palmyra Massacre, in which ten Confederate prisoners were killed in retaliation for the disappearance of a local Union man.
