History - Julia, the third child of Katherine Jensen and Abraham Hunsaker, was born at Brigham City on November 28, 1865. Julia had a strong and noble character and was well educated for an early Pioneer child.

She married David Loveland in the Endowment House in Salt Lake City on December 6, 1883. Her first six children were born in Honeyville or in Calls Fort. The family moved to Pocatello Valley, where they lived for a short time on a farm.

They then moved to Logan, Utah, where twin boys were born. She raised a family of 10 children and had to work very hard as all the people in those days did. She baked bread, sewed her family's clothes, and scrubbed the bare wood floors with plenty of homemade soap. She had to draw water from a well, carry it to the house, and wash the family clothes on a board. It was a long hard day's work as all the white clothes had to be boiled to keep them pretty and white. When she ironed she sometimes had to chop wood to stuff in the hot stove to heat the irons. While she ironed she always baked a batch of bread or boiled a big pot of beans. When the children had their baths, she had to do part of them one night and the rest on another night, as all the water had to be heated in a wash boiler on the stove. A wash tub was put by the stove, behind a blanket spread over two chairs which provided a little privacy.

In 1911 the family moved to Hinckley, Utah, where they resided until 1917, when they moved to Tabiona, Utah. Neither Julia nor her husband had good health in Tabiona, so they moved to Salt Lake City in 1938 or 1939.

Julia had a very beautiful voice and sang her children to sleep, and always sang or hummed at her work. When she was on her deathbed she had to have her hymn book with her and would sing softly to herself after the rest of the family had gone to bed. When she became too ill to sing, she would
just lie quietly in bed and say the words of her favorite hymns.

Julia died on May 14, 1948 at Salt Lake City. She was entombed in Salt Lake City.
