Born Katherine Byerley in 1797, she became known as Mrs A. T. Thomson after her marriage and also wrote under the pseudonym Grace Wharton. Reliable reference sources identify her as an English writer remembered chiefly as a novelist and historian.
Her work ranged widely, from fiction to historical biography and memoir. Catalog records and public-domain library listings connect her with books on figures such as the Duke of Buckingham, Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough, and the court of King George II, showing a strong interest in British history and literary culture.
She died in 1862. Although she was clearly a productive and well-published 19th-century author, I could not confirm a suitable portrait image from the pages I checked, so no profile image is included here.
