Do mortal wounds from a weapon with Devastating wounds, ignore the Ctan 1/2 damage rule. It would seem like any weapon that cause multiple mortal wounds will bypass any damage reduction. (From Ctan to Dreads or anything else)

No. See the Rules Commentary for details.

I did not see anything in the commentary about this. What heading is it under?

Now that I am actually at my computer:
Modifying a Damage Characteristic and Devastating Wounds

Some rules modify the Damage characteristic of an attack that has the [DEVASTATING WOUNDS] ability.

■ When a rule modifies an attack’s Damage characteristic, if that attacks scores a Critical Wound, the Damage characteristic is modified before the damage is applied as mortal wounds.

Thank you for your help. Does this mean that mortal wounds from sources other than those with dev wounds would not be halved?

Correct, as they have a damage char of one.

Technically, they are also halved and then rounded back up to 1.
