The Founders | John C. McCoy

"The Founders" explores the bold and brave families who settled here, survived the elements, and formed the partnerships that formed the boundaries of Kansas City.
Part II brings us a name familiar to Kansas Citians. Westport, now a lively entertainment district with restaurants and bars, was founded by John Calvin McCoy. This is his story.
We’re FlatlandKC.org, KCPT’s digital magazine, a destination for local and regional storytelling in and around Kansas City.
