With a husband unwilling or unable to support his family, Millicent and four children moved to Bountiful, UT, and then to Toquerville, UT, where the Naegles had originated. Annaley recalled Toquerville as a wonderful place where a little girl could pick pecans, figs, tomatoes and all kinds of fruit, and did not have to go hungry.

When Annaley was ten, the family visited Millicents mother, who was living in La Sal, cooking for the men at Charlie Redds ranch house."

She felt the same about sacking potatoes in the fall. She also played basketball and continued learning, gaining confidence in her own intelligence, self worth, and ability to work.
