Researching this line is Karla at staudt@cptelco.net
    Based on the 1830 Census where she is with her husband, she would be born between 1770 and 1775. It is still unknown where she died, but it would between 1830 and 1850. She is counted in the 1830 Onondaga Co., NY census, but she does not show up in the 1850 Census in Orleans Co., NY with her husband. So far they have not been found in an 1840 Census. No grave has been found for her in any of the cemeteries where her husband or children are buried. It is possible she was buried in Orleans Co., as a wife of one of her sons is credited by the cemetery as being buried there without a tombstone, though Amy's name is not listed.
