Catharine Pakenham is supposedly the wife of Henry Llewellyn Lloyd and the mother of Henry Lloyd, a British emigrant to South Africa in 1810.
Lloyd family history links her to the Pakenham family of the Earls of Longford and in particular to Lady Catherine (Kitty) Sophia Dorothea Pakenham. However she definitely married Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington as her only husband, and is also from a slightly later generation.
So far there seems to be no evidence that Catharine Pakenham actually existed though more research should probably take place before she is marked as questionable.
