They should be in /usr/include/X11/.  My linux distribution puts Xresource.h and Xlib.h
in the libX11 package, and Xproto.h in a separate package named xproto (contains only
header files).

Many distributions put header files in separate packages with the suffix "dev" or "devel"
in the package name, e.g. libX11-dev or something similar.
