Born on 2 June 1839, she was recorded on her record as being a widow with no trade and a mother of one child. She also had numerous aliases throughout her criminal history, known as Elizabeth Montague and Emily Bloomfield.
While serving one of her many sentences it was noted she had suffered some kind of mania and was incoherent and refusing to eat. However, Catherine was also known to deceive the wardens and other prisoners. On a few occasions she ended up in closed confinement due to being abusive.
On her record, this slight built woman was reported by the Superintendent of the prison to be very violent in the infirmary and abusive towards the medical officer.
Catherine through her prison records proves to be an unpopular character within the prisons she served in. Her criminal history spans from approximately 1865 through to 1883.
