One of my ancestors has the name Kattern, which is the forerunner of Katherine. |

I suppose it's conceivable that when filling in the marriage certificate, she said her name was Catton and the registrar or clergyman thought, "She can't have said Catton, she must have meant Catherine". |

Thanks for those Jim, I had a look around and had found some, but the only marriage I have found for the man is to either a Catherine or Ann. I will go off and do a search of the earlier census images and see what I can find. |

Has anyone come across the female christian name Catton? I have found this on a census image, but the only possible marriage I have found for this pair is with the christian name Catherine. Is Catton perhaps a shortened version of Catherine? |
