I don't know much about Mary except what can be found in others' histories.  The only story anyone ever tells about her is that the British split her tongue after raiding her house in North Carolina near the end of the Revolutionary War.  Apparently she told them what she thought of their actions.  And that's all she gets to be known for here.
