Obituary -- (Findagrave.com):

Amanda Wolf was born daughter of Daniel and Carolina Ann (Bantz) Wolf. She was the seventh child of a family of twelve children; her siblings being: Jacob Wolf, Gideon Wolf, Daniel Wolf, Jr., Elizabeth Wolf, Sarah Jane Wolf, William Wolf, Mary Caroline Wolf, Franklin H. Wolf, Levi Wolf, Margaret Caroline Wolf, and John Dee Wolf. Upon her mother's death, her father remarried, to Mary Baker, providing the following half siblings: Nancy Measury Wolf, Rachele Ellen Wolf, Christian Wolf, and Curtis Wolf.

She lived at the place of her birth until May 2, 1861, when she was united in marriage to George W. Gebhart by Elder H. Surface, at Preble County, Ohio. The young couple began their new life on a farm where three children were born to bless the home, Leonodus Gebhart, Mary Jane Gebhart, and Orange Gebhart. Being a member of a large family, it became necessary for her, while young, to cope with the problems and duties of life that were presented to the people of that early day, thus making her a good farm wife. The results of their industry and economy could be an object lesson to the young and active of today.

The family chain was first broken when son, Leonadus died on April 1, 1890, at the age of 27 years, 7 months, and 21 days, and again when the messenger of death came to call her husband of 63 years away to the spirit world. Since then, until last June, she had lived alone. Since June 1929, due to her advanced age, and declining health, she had lived with her children.

Amanda died, at the age of 87 years and 7 days, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Joseph (Mary Jane) McCrate, northeast of West Manchester, where she had been cared for since December, 1929. Death was caused by dropsy and other conditions incident to old age. However, her death was hastened by a fall she sustained several weeks prior to her death. Her body was laid to rest beside her husband's, on Sunday, February 16, 1930. Funeral service took place at the home of her son, Orange Gebhart, officiated by Rev. Albert Beachler of West Sonora. Besides the son and daughter, she was survived by the widowed wife of her first son, Mrs. Catherine Elizabeth "Kate" (Locke) Gebhart Worman; grandchildren: Roy Gebhart, Frank Gebhart, Ada McCrate, Oscar Evans Gebhart, Holly Gebhart, Ralph Gebhart, David Gebhart, and Helen Gebhart; eight great grandchildren; a brother, John Wolf; one sister, Kate Warwick; and a host of other relatives, friends, and neighbors.

She was buried in February 1930 at Roselawn Cemetery, Lewisburg, Preble Co., OH, Findagrave #14362519.
