If the birth date given in 1939 is correct, there are these possibilities for her birth - the Hemsworth one is more likely:

Re that 1939 for 20 Holt St mentioned above:

Catherine was also there but strangely she was also marked as 'single' so maybe, as we suspected, she never actually married ?

1939:
20 Holt Street, Leigh M.B., Lancashire, England

(3 people)
First name(s) Last name(s) DOB Sex Occupation Marital status Schedule Schedule Sub Number
Catherine Seddon 05 May 1875 Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Single 105 1
John Seddon 02 Feb 1898 Male Brick Setters General Labourer Single 105 2
Edward Seddon 21 Dec 1917 Male Newspaper Seller Single 105 3


The two males would be her sons - brothers of Catherine Jnr.
