Katy Township is one of ten townships in Boone County, Missouri, USA. It is the newest township formed in Boone County and its major city is the river town of Rocheport.
Settled mainly by settlers from the upland south (Kentucky, Virginia, and Tennessee), Katy Township was named after the Missouri-Kansas-Texas-Railway (MKT or Katy for short) which runs along the Missouri River on the township's western boundary.[2]
