I have not checked Catholic records and to be honest, wouldn't know where to start. I have a lot of Catholic lines, mainly from Ireland, but this doesn't appear to be one. Always open to more research though.
If you could point me in the right direction, if you're able to, I'll try and follow up on that suggestion.
For a long time I was lost as to where to look as well. Then I came upon this guide.
https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/catholics/ It is full of useful links and information.
From 1559 to 1829, England did not allow the Catholic faith. Anyone who did not worship in a Church of England church was persecuted.
Between 1754 and 1837 it was a legal requirement to marry the Church of England. So even when the formal emancipation ended, Catholics were still being punished. Records kept by priests were often on small pieces of paper or in notebooks that could be destroyed if they were investigated.
Catholic nobility lost money, land and buildings. But from what I've found along the way, I believe they were supportive of the local community. Often, private catholic chapels were available to workers.
There's a lot of information to find. I've only just scratched the surface. If you find a Henry Glover b. around 1811 near Chorley or Atherton in your Catholic research, please send me the information. He is my 4th great grandfather who only put his name on one daughter's marriage document in 1870. I have a few dots and hardly any concrete connections.
