Julia (Davis) Nault was born in Machias, Maine in 1934 to Edrie and Julian Davis. Her mother was a housewife, and her father worked in the wholesale beef business. Her father was an active Democrat in the Machias area, and worked with Ed Muskie at the Office of Price Stabilization. She married Mark Nault and returned to Maine in 1964. Her husband was the editor of the Machias Times. She was active in Democratic politics and served as a director of the U.S. Census one year, and served on the Maine Legal Needs Commission with Ed Muskie

Gearing effects of the patella (knee extensor muscle sesamoid) of the helmeted guineafowl during terrestrial locomotion
Human patellae (kneecaps) are thought to act as gears, altering the mechanical advantage of knee extensor muscles during running. Similar sesamoids have evolved in the knee extensor tendon independently in birds, but it is unknown if these also affect the mechanical advantage of knee extensors. Here, we examine the mechanics of the patellofemoral joint in the helmeted guineafowl Numida meleagris using a method based on muscle and tendon moment arms taken about the patella's rotation centre around the distal femur. Moment arms were estimated from a computer model representing hindlimb anatomy, using hip, knee and patellar kinematics acquired via markerâbased biplanar fluoroscopy from a subject running at 1.6 msâ1 on a treadmill. Our results support the inference that the patella of Numida does alter knee extensor leverage during running, but with a mechanical advantage generally greater than that seen in humans, implying relatively greater extension force but relatively lesser extension velocity
