I see that some even say that Mary Catherine (if she even existed) died in 1770 as she was killed by Indians. I have no legitimate source for that, however.

Her tombstone in TN says she died in 1840. There is frequent confusion between her and a possible Mary Catherine who may have been the first wife of John Daniel "Preacher" Cate. That Mary Catherine was said to bear his first son, William. Not much else is known of her, so it is surmised she died early, thus the death date of 1802. Mary Lawrence Cate was the mother of John's 14 other children and died in 1840.

Father is likely Thomas Lawrence b. ~ 1733 in VA and mother Lucy Womack. They were from VA but came to Wilkes, NC sometime in the middle of that century.
