May I suggest you look at the Baptism sponsor names if you haven't already. This could give you a clue.

Thank you John...I really appreciate your quick response to my dilemma. I do have the sponsors names for both Julias as well as their siblings. Most of the sponsors are relatives with both the mom & dad's surnames. Are there birth records anywhere that record the mother's maiden name???
