Note: WFT #3213 shows marriage date as June 04, 1882. McConeghy records show June 6 ??
1900 US Census, (Clermont), Sergeant Township, Mckean County, Pennsylvania, ED #123, sheet 3-B, enumerated June 4, 1900 by Albert R. Anderson, dwelling #54, family #56,
Jacob Amend, head, age 41, born June 1859, married for 18 years, born in PA, parents born in Germany, occ: dealer (meats), rented his house, could read and write.
Anna, wife, age 36, born June 1863, married for 18 years, had 5 children, 5 living, born in Canada, parents born in Ireland, could read and write, naturalized(?)
Mary E., daughter, age 17, born Apr 1883, born in PA, attended school for 2 months, could read and write

Lucius, son, age 2, born Sept 1893 born in PA
Leonard, son, age 2, born Sept 1893, born in PA
Note :Lucius and Leonard were twins
Census was taken June 4th before her birthday so she would have been almost 37.
(There is an obvious date here Lucius and Leonard are clearly recorded here as being born in Sept 1893 but that would make them 6 in June 1900, not 2. If the enumerator had meant to write 1898, they would have been only 1 at last birthday, not 2. We had birthdate of Sept 1897 from other sources.
Also Jacob is incorrectly shown as born in 1859 here, but his gravestone says 1858 and in the 1860 census he was age 2)

WFT #3213 lists her first name as Anna, we had Annie in McConeghy family records (not sourced)
WFT #3213 shows birth date as June 8, 1862. McConeghy family records had June 6.
from the 1900 census data, her birth year was 1863 not 1862
WFT #3213 shows place of death as Clermont PA

I have a photo of her gravestone in the Amend plot in St Elizabeth's Catholic Cemetery in Smethport, PA. that I took in August 2003
It reads:
"Anna K.
1862 - 1927
Mother"
