Is there any way I can find the gravesite of Mary Starbuck Macy? She died in Guilford Co NC Aug.27, 1813 Mary and her husband Joseph were received from Nantucket to New Garden MM in Guilford Co NC in on 9/26/1774. Then they were granted a certificate to Center MM on 12/18/1775. In Joseph's will he spells his name "Macey" Any help will be so greatly appreciated. Mary is my 4 great grandmother. PH DePoy
Hello PH. The Nantucket Quakers who were in Guilford County, NC are of great interest to me as well. So please keep any discussion on your Macy's....Starbucks.....etc on the mail list. I am interested. One of my big goals this year is to prove that my 3-gr-grandfather, Silas P. Wooten, was married to Phebe Worth.....everyone seems to except this as fact....I feel sure that it is....but I would like just a bit more proof. But at this point, I am accepting it as very probably a true fact. Phebe's 2-gr-grandmother was Sarah Macy married to William Worth. I also believe that Phebe was a descendent of Mary Starbuck of an earlier generation than that of your Mary Starbuck Macy, but I can't find the proofs right this second to say it with conviction. I would also be very interested to know if there is information on grave sites for any of these Nantucket Quakers who were living in NC in the late 1700's to early 1800's.
