I suspect Dom is Latin. Try December. Looks like the inscription is in German u. being abbreviated for and Starn may say sterb or died. Consider after hinderliess (probably hinterließ )(left behind) it may say verheiratet Witwe ( married widow ) 5 Sohn(son) u.(and) 2 tocht. (daughters). Ihope this is of some help.
