She was married to William Jacob GOSS on 20 Jul 1871 in Jefferson, Ashe, North Carolina. Amanda and William GOSS settled at Fruita CO in 1886.

William GOSS enlisted in the Confederate Army in 1861, was wounded during the Battle of Second Manassas and later captured. He was paroled and returned to his regiment, but at Gettysburg he was captured again. In February 1864 he was released to join the First Regiment, US volunteers and given a choice by the Northern Army of fighting the South or fighting indians. He chose the indians and fought in the West until he got back to North Carolina.

After marrying Amanda, he suffered from his war injuries and the doctors suggested a warm, dry climate, so they moved to Pueblo CO by train. They farmed there for 3 years, but lost all their crops to hail, packed up and headed by covered wagon to Fruita. As they came down Cochetopa Pass the wagons and herd of cattle were nearly bogged down in the wet sand because of heavy rain. Everyone but the wagon drivers had to walk. When the group finally reached Grand Junction they had to ford the river to get across to the "city," which consisted of a few log cabins and one 2-story hotel.

Upon reaching Fruita, they homesteaded and settled in to farm and establish a thriving honey business. The children soon started school at a 2-room, 2-story building located where the old Fruita Central School was later located. The upper room was used as a church and social hall, the bottom for school. Eleven of their 14 children attended school in Fruita. In 1996 there were fifth-generation children enrolled there -- Billy, Bryce and Lindsay Byers.

The Goss children -- James, Leonora and Mary -- died at a very young age. Willie died of typhoid feber at age 13, Clint, who grew up in Fruita and married, died in 1918 from an accident with a horse.
