William Harrison Clanton (1862 - October 26, 1881) was a human male who lived in the 19th century. He was most famous for his membership in a gang of cowboys who became involved in a gun battle down the street from the O. K. Corral in October 26, 1881. Their adversaries were Wyatt Earp, Morgan Earp, Virgil Earp and John Holliday, arguably all members of a rival gang. Both sides were endorsed by local branches of law enforcement. By all legitimate accounts, "Billy" Clanton was a rancher and cowboy, and that was his first gunfight.

In 2268, "Billy" Clanton's identity was imposed upon Montgomery Scott in a bizarre, and rather in-accurate recreation of the shootout created by the Melkotians. (TOS episode: "Spectre of the Gun", TOS novelization: The Last Gunfight)
