Citation Notes: 
The 1819 date from this family tree does not display a source, it is from a private library book, however it matches this reference to her being around 50 year old at the time of her marriage in 1870: https://books.google.com/books?id=p8jmmSwD9KEC&pg=PA290&lpg=PA290&dq=catherine+hone+richard+blatchford+1870&source=bl&ots=Wyg6NVEZld&sig=M8Kvos5GD90RAau6yx_EoiPJr0Q&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwib8oG91pDWAhXCKiYKHUe1BVsQ6AEIQDAK#v=onepage&q=catherine%20hone%20richard%20blatchford%201870&f=false

Citation Notes: 
Again, the family tree does not list a verifiable source for her death but she was listed in a 1889 city directory so she had to pass away some time after that: https://www.ancestrylibrary.com/interactive/2469/1671021/71648767?backurl=https://www.ancestrylibrary.com/family-tree/person/tree/9413339/person/-803428760/facts/citation/24044027255/edit/record
