The Ingalls Family
No, Carrie Ingalls did not have malaria when the rest of the family had it. Laura Ingalls Wilder, who wrote the Little House on the Prairie books, mentioned that only herself, Mary, and Ma had contracted malaria while living on the prairie.
The Ingalls family lived in the Big Woods of Wisconsin, not Missouri. Laura Ingalls Wilder, the author of the "Little House on the Prairie" books, was born in Pepin, Wisconsin. The family later moved to Kansas, Minnesota, and South Dakota.
