Catherine Killigrew (1618–1689) was the daughter of Sir Robert Killigrew and Mary Woodhouse.

Killigrew died in 1689 in Cumberlow, Hertfordshire, although some reports erroneously have her dying at Spa, Belgium in August 1654, as maid of honour to the Princess of Orange.

Family

Killigrew is presumed to be the mother of George Elliott, the illegitimate son of Richard Eliot. Her great-grandson, Granville Elliott, spent much time and trouble trying to prove Killigrew had married Richard prior to George's birth, making him a legal heir. However, Granville was unable to show this formally. It is known that Catherine was legally single when she was executor to her mother's will in December 1656, and Richard appears in visitations as ob cael (died a bachelor). Given the amount of effort expended, and the closeness in time, it remains probable that George Elliott was the illegitimate son of Richard and Catherine.

Catherine married the widower Sir Thomas Stanley at some point after 1656, with no issue.
