William M. LAMB
Catharine CUPP

Husband: William M. LAMB
Birth: 28 Apr 1794, Staunton, Augusta Co., VA
Death: 22 Dec 1876, Pleasant Twp., Fairfield Co., OH
Occupation: farmer
Father: John Peter LAMB
Mother: Catherine "Dutch Granny" KIPLINGER

Wife: Catharine "Kitty" CUPP
Birth: 22 Dec 1794, Augusta Co., VA
Death: 1887
Occupation: homemaker
Father: Valentine CUPP
Mother: Mary FAHL

The LDS Ancestral File calls her, "Hettie Catharine," but are they just mis-reading "Kittie"? Or am I mistaken in thinking "Hetty" is a mis-reading of "Kitty"? Hettie is the nickname for Hester, and that's not a typically German name — and these were Germans.
