Notes:
Death/Burial for Catherine: Rulon Stocking searched several years in western Massachusetts records and in cemeteries and was unable to find any records of her burial in MA. It is possible that a flood through the cemetery after her death disturbed many graves and Catherine's may have been one of those.
