Is it possible that the 1851 entry is them and Catherine aged 16 is Christians daughter?  I cant seen to find the entry on SP but I will keep looking

This does look very likely it's your Catherine (in my opinion) but of course I can't verify that.

I'm not so sure of her being a dau or g/dau  :-\

She doesn't seem to be with Christian in 1841 not helped by being a very common name  ::)

The entry on SP is exactly as I posted i.e. go to 1851 census & type in the name with this exact spelling, her age & Fife for the County...

THOMPSON CATHERINE
1851
16
420/ 10/ 18
Cupar, Fife

I can't pick a 'likely' in 1841 as none are in Cupar Parish  ::)

I found the census and downloaded it from SP
It has Barbara as daughter, David as Son and Catherine as Daughter. So I think there is a good chance of this being the correct family.
Off to look for a death for this Christian born c1791 and see if that yields anything

Thanks for all your help

You may not be able to find them in the 1841 census. Cupar is among the parishes for whom the 1841  census returns are lost. Quite a few Fife parishes fall into this category.

There is this birth in Ceres

There is a death in 1867 of a Christian Thomson mmn Hutton in Dunfermline.

It might certainly be worth a look, Isobel. Just checked again

Christian Thomson mmn Hutton died 1867 age 77 Dunfermline ref 424/1 251.
Christina Walker mmn Hutton has exactly the same reference.

The Christian Glass mmn Hutton that Annie found has a different reference and died age 67.

Yes it does Isobel!

This is not much help but on SP I couldn't find a Charles Walker (witness on 1860 marriage) in 1851 or 1861 anywhere using...

Wonder what address is given for Catherine on her marriage cert? There is a Christian Thomson of the correct age (but showing as born Lemback) living in Woodmill Road (one transcription has it as Windmill) with daughters Barbara and Margaret and grandchildren Jane and Isabella.
