Pennsylvania has recently placed a death certificate index online for 1906-1961. I searched for her record and a Mandy Howey is recorded as having died on 01.08.1934 in Scott Twp., Lackawanna County, PA. The certificate number is 5148. If you are interested in obtaining the actual certificate, you can do so for $3 and an SASE. Here is a link to the form to download to make the request.
I found this using Soundex Code H000.
