Catharine then married John Rodenbough 7 Mar 1842 in Oakland County, MI. She and John had at 2 children.
John was her second husband and she was his second wife because he married first, her sister Hannah (aka Aurora) Swayze who had died in 1835 in Dryden, Tompkins, NY and had 8 children with Hannah, some of whom, I'm sure were still children when he married Catharine.
