Julia Anne Neville was Julia and Joseph Neville's first daughter. She was named after her mother. She married Robert Carl Gustaveson and had five children. Jan, Christy, Barbara, Susan and Carl. She is known by Anne, to help avoid the confusion of two Julias. Anne remembers when they lived in Escalante while her father, Joseph William Neville Junior, was in charge of the CCC Camps. During the winter they lived in the town and in the summer they lived up in the mountians near Posey Lake. Her father was helping put the road in from Escalante to Boulder. She remembers going over "Hell's Backbone" in the back of their pick up truck and pulling a tarp over her head so it would not seem so frightening. She also remembers living in a tent and living life like she was camping. As a child she remembers it being a lot of fun.
Nancy Jane Neville was the baby of the family. She married Drew Arthur Van Wagoner and had five children. Ann Marie, Jeff, Jon, Carol and Kurt. Nancy met her husband at her brothers, Bruce and Bob's missionary farewell. Drew Van Wagoner was on the program and did a musical number. She was still a teenager when she first saw him. As he was singing, she said to herself, I'm going to marry him, and she did.
