A devout Catholic, Katherine ruled over the household at Coughton long after her eldest son succeeded to the property. She had no fewer than 19 children and 112 grandchildren.

Her husband preceded her in death. Sir George Throckmorton died on 6 Aug 1552 and was buried in the stately marble tomb which he had prepared for himself in Coughton church. Her brass tomb also lies in the church at Coughton. (bio by Audrey DeCamp Hoffman)

"Under the eastern arch on the north side of the chancel is a large altar-tomb, 9 ft. long, to Sir George (who died in 1552) and Dame Katherine his wife. It is of grey marble with cusped panelled sides containing brass shields, and a moulded top slab in which are their brass effigies. He is represented in armour and she wears a pedimental head-dress, a loose mantle, and belted skirt. Below are the figures of eight sons and eleven daughters, and there are four shields of arms, charged with Throckmorton impaling Vaux, Throckmorton, Throckmorton impaling Abberbury, and quarterly Throckmorton, Abberbury, Spiney, Bosom. Some of the shields on the sides of the base are missing: two remain and are coloured. One on the south side is charged with the quarterly Throckmorton coat. The other on the north side is also quarterly but has Throckmorton in the 4th quarter instead of the first. In the marginal inscription, the dates of their deaths were never filled in and the inscription does not cross the east end."
