Little is known about Julia Ann Wass and her husband, Enoch Avery Emerson, yet what is known shows them to be people of character and natural leadership. Before leaving Maine for California, Enoch was a sea captain. In 1882, the Free Mason Forbestown Lodge #50 lists him as an active Master Mason and their son, Ralph, a junior warden.

The Wass and Emerson families were joined by two marriages Enoch and Julia's and Aaron Emerson and Salome Wass. Julia and Enoch were married in 1844 and had at least two children: Millard Fillmore (1848) and Ralph Waldo (1852).

Naming their sons after a successful relative and a contemporary vice-president/president shows Julia and Enoch were interested in politics and current events. He was a registered voter. They had been married 53 years when Julia was left a widow.
