  Catherine Grey
Lady Catherine Grey (sometimes spelled "Katherine") (~1539 - January 1568), Countess of Hertford, was a younger sister of Lady Jane Grey, the youngest of their parents' three children being Lady Mary Grey.
As a grand-daughter of King Henry VIII of England's sister Mary Tudor, Catherine had just as valid a claim to the throne of England as her sister had, so she was just as big a threat to Queen Elizabeth I of England as Jane had been to Elizabeth's sister Queen Mary I of England.
In 1560 Lady Catherine secretly married Edward Seymour, 2nd Earl of Hertford[?], the son of Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset, who was a brother of Henry VIII's third wife Jane Seymour.
