Character history
As Kathy Mershon
Kathy Mershon was the adopted daughter of the late Jim and Linda Mershon, friends of Julia Santos from her time in the Witness Protection Program. Kathy was orphaned when the three of them were in a car accident outside of Pine Valley.
Kathy was taken in by Jamie Martin and Julia Santos, but Jamie has left Pine Valley to work in Tanzania with his Uncle Jake. Kathy currently lives with Julia at Wildwind along with Del Henry, Aidan Devane, Amanda Dillon and Jonathan Lavery.
Kathy and Julia Santos have just returned from their visit to see Julia's sister Maria and Maria's children Sam and Maddie in California.
As Kate Martin
Unbeknownst to everyone, Kathy is the only living biological child of Tad Martin and Dixie Cooney. Tad and Dixie previously had another child who was miscarried years earlier. Kathy/Kate was born in Switzerland and given up for adoption when Dixie was made to believe, by Dr. Gregory Madden, that she would not make it through the car crash. Although Tad and Dixie referred to their daughter as Kate Martin, she was never legally named as such.
Tad Martin is currently still searching for his daughter, he has no idea that Julia Santos is raising her. Kathy has three biological living half-siblings. Dixie's son, Adam "J.R." Chandler, Tad's son, James "Jamie" Martin, and Tad's newborn daughter, Jenny Carey.
