It also seems to have influenced Django Unchained, as far as the bounty-hunter character who becomes a sensei. This was noted here:

Was there a Nevada Smith connection to Hannie Caulder?

I think the idea of avenging the murders of family members or a beloved was pretty common in westerns.
Seeing the trailer for the new Natalie Portman film, Jane Got a Gun certainly reminded me of Hannie Caulder.
