Mary's maiden name may have been Carlock/Gerlach. Some sources state that three Carlock sisters, sisters of Rev. Hanschrist Carlock, married three Starnes/Staring/Stearns brothers. Mary married Frederick, Jr. (c.1724-1779), Katherine married Joseph, Sr. (c.1730-1779), both of whom were killed on the Virginia frontier in what is now Kentucky, and Caroline married Adam.
After their husbands' deaths, Mary and Katherine settled on lands their husbands owned in Mecklenburg Co., NC. I do not know where they are buried, but Mary is probably in the "Old Colonial Starnes cemetery" near the SC line. Katherine may be in an unmarked grave at the Morning Star Lutheran Church, or at the old Bethel Methodist cemetery, near Mint Hill, NC.
Frederick. Jr. & Mary's children were: Capt. John Starnes (1745-1780, a Soldier of the Revolution killed at the Battle of King's Mountain, m. Margaret Speck), Jacob Starnes (c. 1750-1812, a Soldier of the Revolution and Indian fighter, m. Elizabeth South, lived in Kentucky, d. in St. Helena Parish, Louisiana), Valentine Starnes (c.1752-1782, killed at the Battle of Blue Licks, Kentucky), Conrad Starnes (c. 1755-c.1800, m. Margaret Brown), Charles Starnes (c.1756-c.1807, m. Caty, perhaps Catherine Beaver), David Starnes (1758-c.1833, m. Barbara Starns, lived in Mecklenburg Co., NC, now Union Co., 5th great grandfather of the present writer), Frederick Starnes III (c.1765-c.1816, m. Mary Fisher).
