I WAS NAMED AFTER MY DAD'S GRANDMOTHER JULIA ANN (KNIGHT) EAMES

I honor her name. She was a pioneer and a very hard worker. Julia cooked for not only her family but also for traveling salesmen or others passing through Almo, Idaho. They rented rooms to them and took care of their horses. Julia was an expert seamstress and sewed all of the clothes for her family as well as for others who would pay her for her services. Her girls always got a new dress for Christmas and on the 4th of July. She was only 5 feet tall and very fiesty. My Dad remembered her as being a very loving Grandmother.
