She was the daughter of Thomas and Winifred Evans Hull.
Last known census shows her in Jackson, Dallas County, Arkansas in 1850. Old letters show she was buried in a different cemetery than her husband who was buried next to his third wife.
"Departed this life on the 11th of May, 1856, Mrs. Julia Bledsoe. She was born on the 20th of May, 1808; and married to T. Bledsoe on the 28th of October, 1828 , in Georgia. She professed religion in early life, and was baptized by Elder J. P. James, of Henry county, Ga.
Moved to Arkansas, in 1849, and shortly after joined Temperance Hill Church, where she remained as an exemplary member until her death.—She was the mother of twelve children. She was a friend to the fatherless—the needy never went empty from her door—she was a friend to the poor indeed.
She bore her illness without a murmur, and went off without a struggle—gave regular directions in regard to her domestic affairs, until the morning of her death. She was the daughter of S. Winnaford Hull, of Putnam county, Ga.
