Notes |
- “This remarkable little lady spoke only German until she started school, when she quickly mastered English. She attended Villa Maria Academy for girls in Bryan, Texas, where, being musical, she studied piano and voice. Julia had dark hair and a fair complexion, was gentle, quite, somewhat introverted, highly intelligent and artistic.
“She had a natural talent for bookkeeping and worked for T. H. Williams, a fashionable women’s store, in Austin. Her abilities brought frequent promotions. She was also given leaves of absence from her job to bear her three children — a practice rare in business in those days. Even when she was at home and not working, Mr. Williams insisted that she come and manage the office while he was on buying trips.
“Julia had a lifelong hobby, “fancy work” — embroidery, crochet, etc. How fortunate were those who knew her.”
