Catherine was born about 1829. She was the daughter of John Thomas and Mary Rees. She was baptised 24 May 1829 in St Nicholas, Glamorgan, Wales.

In 1841, Catherine was living with her mother and siblings in Llancarfan, Glamorgan, Wales.[5]
Research Notes
The 1841 census has Catherine and her family living with John Thomas, a 75 year old tailor. On Catherine and her siblings baptism records, their father was recorded as a pedlar. On Catherine's marriage it says her father was a tailor. As of 28 Feb 2024, I am awaiting the marriage certificate for George Thomas (abt.1831-) to hopefully get a better idea whether the John Thomas they were living with was their father or another relation.
