It is believed that Catherine may be the daughter of Larue Jacob Truax/Truex and Abigail Rebecca Stillwell however no records or documentation has been found which substantiates this claim. It is not known if Catherine was indeed a Truax. There is speculation that she may have been Catherine Johns. However, if the Maryland marriage information for Catherine Johns and a Jeremiah Stillwell is correct, Catherine Johns cannot be the wife of "this" Jeremiah Stillwell but was the wife of another Jeremiah. The dates in the record do not work. Also, the names of their children do not coincide with the names of the children of Jeremiah as proven in court documents.

Catherine married Jeremiah Stillwell (later seen as Stilwell). In August 1800, she joined the Tonoloway Baptist Church in Bedford Co (now Fulton Co), Pa. After her death, Jeremiah moved to Monongalia Co, WV (Va til 1863). Jeremiah married a 2nd time to an Elizabeth who after the death of Jeremiah married Henry Amos. There are no known children of Jeremiah and Elizabeth.

Catherine and Jeremiah had the following known children:
Sibilla "Sibby" (perhaps the wife of John Hart)
Ann (believed to have m. Benjamin Abbott)
Elias 1772-1848 (died in Monongalia Co, WV/Va)
Thomas (moved to Ohio)
Obadiah (moved to Ohio, died 8 April 1850)
Lemuel John (died 21 MAY 1853 in Preston Co, WV/Va)
Rachel (m. John Bell, moved to Ohio)
Elizabeth (m. William Hastings)
John (died before 1833)
Jeremiah Jr (died 31 JUL 1855 in Monongalia Co, WV/Va)
Mariam (believed to have m. Samuel Powell)
