  • Notes 
    • “Julia was her mother’s companion, helper, and nurse in many family illnesses. She graduated from La Grange High School and then attended Texas Presbyterian College for one year. Due to her mother’s illness she did not return to college.

      “It was at a dance in Bellville that she met Victor Miller. He immediately proposed. She laughed. Vic was persistent, persuasive and ‘never dull.’ Their wedding was a week-long affair with many guests. Their marriage was similar with guests invite for birthdays, reunions, trips, picnics, and camps. Julia arranged food, dishes, decorations for bridge parties, church functions, teas, sewing circles, house guests, and youth gatherings. She led a Camp Fire group, working in PTA, and held women’s offices in the Presbyterian church. She was also a popular Bible teacher and for five years sponsored a young women’s service sorority, Beta Sigma Phi. Julia enjoyed travel, entertaining, and letter writing. She also enjoyed gardening, bird watching, bridge playing, and raising canaries and tropical fish.” [11]
