Part 3 of "The Legend of Billy the Kid" documentary series delves into the formative years of Billy the Kid, focusing on his time in Wichita, Kansas. This episode provides an in-depth look at the early influences and experiences that shaped the young Henry McCarty before he became the infamous outlaw known as Billy the Kid. It explores the family's move to Wichita in the late 1860s, highlighting the challenges and opportunities presented by the bustling frontier town.
Catherine McCarty holds a unique place in the history of Wichita, Kansas, not only as the mother of the notorious Billy the Kid but also as a pioneering woman who played an active role in the town's development. In 1870, Catherine made a significant mark by becoming the only woman to sign the petition for Wichita to be incorporated as a city. This act of civic engagement was remarkable given the societal norms of the time, which often limited women's participation in public and political life.
Her involvement in the petition for incorporation highlights Catherine's commitment to the community and her forward-thinking mindset. Despite the challenges of raising her two sons, Henry (Billy the Kid) and Joseph, and navigating the hardships of frontier life, Catherine was determined to contribute to the growth and formal establishment of Wichita. By signing the petition, she demonstrated her belief in the potential of Wichita and her desire to see it flourish as a recognized city.
