Catherine was a cousin of the ill fated Anne Boleyn (Henry's second wife) and a niece of the Duke of Norfolk. Henry was extremely happy with her, but Catherine made the terrible mistake of having an affair with a cousin of her mother's, Thomas Culpepper, which was a treasonable offence. Catherine was apprehended and was placed into custody on 12 November 1541. After she was found to be guilty of the charges, Catherine was eventually taken to the Tower of London by barge on 10 February 1542. On 13th February 1542 she went to her execution and her body was placed in the chapel of St. Peter ad Vincula at the Tower, to join that of her cousin Anne Boleyn.
