Katy, Texas was first known as Cane Island...not sure why. How the town became Katy is also a mystery. Some people thought it was named after the Saloonkeeper's wife, and some think it was named after the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad. In any case, the name stuck and Katy, Texas has been home to rice farmers and oil refineries, and everyone in between. In fact, during World War II the size of the reserves and the proximity of Houston-area refineries combined to make Katy the most significant gas-condensate field in the country. Development of the gas field resulted in a doubling of the population in Katy. The city of Katy was incorporated in 1945 with C. L. Baird as the first mayor and Arthur O. Miller and H. E. Romack as councilmen. After the 1940s the town has continued to grow.
