Or maybe it was England? Not much is known about his origins other than the fact that his mother's name was Catherine McCarty and he had one brother named Joe. The name and identity of his father remains a mystery to this day, despite the fact that historians have scoured America and parts of Europe searching for his records. Anyway, it's long been believed that William Bonney, one of the Old West's most famous outlaws, was an illegitimate son. When I did a little informal research to find out if many people have heard of him, three out of four friends said they have never heard of William Bonney. Two of those friends asked, "You mean of Bonnie and Clyde?" which made me realize that I need to get some new, smarter friends. http://qui.live.mediaspanonline.com/new_story/Niemann-Column-MON-5-5
