Well, the Ballad of Billy the Kid by Billy Joel begins:

'From a town known as Wheeling, West Virginia,
Came a boy with a six gun in his hand
And his daring life of crime
Made him a legend in his time
East and west of the Rio Grande'

So, it might well be him! On the other hand, Billy Joel has acknowledged he played hard and loose with the facts in order to make the song scan.

These two are from Wheeling W.V.

Walter Reuther labor leader,
Eleanor Steber soprano,

WaldoMcFroog, Billy the kid was born in New York, so Mr Joel was playing with the truth a bit.

Actually, having looked into it after my post, the best information I can find says that no one knows where he was born.
