PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Kitty Leroy was born in Michigan, in the year 1850.

By the time she was fourteen she was performing in dance halls and saloons. She also had developed shooting skills that few could match, including the ability to shoot apples off people's heads.

She was married 5 times, but didn't have any children. Leroy married for the fifth and final time, this time to prospector and gambler Samuel R. Curley. This marriage, as her others, was short. Curley was alleged to have been extremely jealous and Leroy did not help matters, as she had numerous affairs, including one with her latest ex-husband.

Kitty Leroy died
December 7, 1877

Curley shot and killed Leroy in the Lone Star Saloon, then turned the gun on himself and committed suicide.
