			The daughter of Sir Thomas Parr of Kendall, a courtier of the royal household, Catherine was destined to be part of the highest of nobility. Her family was of good reputation and wealth and she was well educated.

			At the age of seventeen her parents started negotiations for her marriage which ended in Catherine marrying Sir Edward Burgh who died only four years later. This left Catherine a childless widow apart from being orphaned since by that time her parents had died too.

			She remarried rather quickly (in 1534). This time it was to John Neville, Lord Latimer who already had two children from a former marriage. He was rich and a substantial part of the royal household. After taking part of the Pilgrimage of Grace (an uprising of Catholics in the North) and therefore spending some time in the Tower (which he survived) he died in 1543.

			Even though Catherine was in love with someone else - namely Thomas Seymour, brother of the late Queen Jane Seymour - she had to obey the King’s wishes and saw it as God’s will that she should become Queen. To her this was a mission she had to fulfill. Her aim was to complete the conversion of England to Reform. Catherine was a deeply religious Protestant although she was brought up Catholic. She even wrote a book promoting Protestant views in her later life.

			She was proclaimed Queen on the day of her wedding (July 12, 1543), no coronation ceremony was held.
			The relationship between her and Henry must have been a rather trustful one, as she was appointed Queen Regent in 1544 when Henry left the country in order to invade France.

			When Henry died in 1548, Catherine – now a widow for the third time and still childless – was able to marry her former love Thomas Seymour.

			She died shortly after giving birth to her first child on September 7, 1548.
