After graduation, Jean attended Dickinson Teacher's College in Dickinson, ND where upon furthering her education began teaching in Elk Creek Township, ND. In the fall of 1948 her teaching career brought her to Fallon County, MT where she would continue to teach in the rural schools for the next 18 years.

In 1951, Jean met Colin (Cog) Cameron and they were married on June 15, 1952. To this union two daughters were born. Jean and Cog lived in Ollie, MT, Thelen, ND, and Plevna, MT before moving to Baker. After retiring from teaching in 1966, Jean went to work as a deputy clerk in the Clerk of Courts office in Baker, MT. In the fall of 1981 she became Clerk of Court, retiring from that position on December 31, 1989.

Jean liked spending time on the farm she and Cog owned 12 miles north of Baker on the Big Hill. She was fond of dancing and enjoyed playing cards, especially with her grandchildren. She was an active member of the Baker Community Church, where she taught Sunday School and served on many boards, helping in many capacities over the years.
