Catharine Burton (1668–1714), also known by her religious name Mary Xaveria of the Angels, was an English Discalced Carmelite.
She was born at Beyton, Suffolk, near Bury St Edmunds, on 4 November 1668 as one of ten children of Thomas and Mary Burton.
After his wife died, Thomas Burton brought up the children alone, instead of entering a monastery as a laybrother as he had intended to do.
[1] A Life of her, collected from her own writings and other sources by Thomas Hunter, remained in manuscript until 1876, when it was published by Burns and Oates, under the editorial supervision of Henry James Coleridge.
