Nice job on the first pass bio of Kate Horoney, whoever you are. I'll see if I can come up with a picture. I've made a few minor changes. Glen Boyer ought to be given credit for digging a lot of the original bio stuff up on Kate. Sbharris 01:40, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] "Big nose"
Given that in her picture, she doesn't appear to have a particularly gargantuan schnozz, why did she have this nickname? --Dweller 13:00, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks Dweller, according to Kate herself in the Anton Mazzonovich article, Kate was considered by Wyatt Earp and his friends to always be dealing in Doc's business. A place where in the 19th century a woman had no place. So Wyatt and his croanies began celling her "Nosey Kate." But because being of Hungarian descent she DID have a larger nose. So Big Nose Kate stuck. Please Visit the FindAgrave.com page that is referenced on the page to see other pictures of Kate Diamond Lil
