When Reverend Aaron Pinson drew his will in Feb. 1794, Mary Cole was already deceased, as her father specifically mentions the heirs of his daughter, Mary Cole, deceased. So, your death date is really an "on or before" date. I have seen Jeremiah Cole listed as Mary's son and his birthdate listed as 1 Aug. 1793. If that is all true, then Mary must have died at, or within a half year after, Jerimiah's birth.
Since Mary's brother Joseph (my G4GF) was born on 1/30/1754 it's unlikely Mary was born in that year unless she was Joseph's twin or she was born at the very end of the year (unlikely). I've seen other years (1757?) listed for her birth, but I don't know of any proof for those dates.
The 1790 Laurens census showed the Solomon Cole household with 1 male over 16, 5 males under 16 and 3 females. Assuming one female is Solomon's wife Mary, that allows for two probable daughters.
Coles (not Solomon, but likely his brothers) were at the battle of Kings Mtn and some were casualties of that patriot victory which was ultimately a major contributor to Cornwallis' defeat at Yorktown.
