Catherine SAUNDERS
about 1809
Note: I have placed Catherine as a daughter of John Saunders, not Andrew Saunders. It is certainly possible she was Andrew's daughter and not a sister to Lucy, but they appear in several records together. It is likely Lucy and Catherine were sisters who married Dunn brothers. Census records and Coolatin records indicate Catherine could have been born as early as 1808.
