Seemingly based on Findagrave, most state she died in 1772.

Children Mary, George, Enoch, Edward, William, Susannah, Joseph, Milly, Sally and Daniel were all born after their supposed mother died in 1772.
Some sites try to fix the problem by having all children born before 1772.

Does anyone have a source for when and where she died?

I continued searching and found this that implies the children born after 1772, were not hers.
