She died on January 11, 1963, in St Louis, Missouri, at the age of 78.

Julia and Robert were laid to rest at Washington Park Cemetery, where they remained until October of 1999.

Both Julia Phelps Blackwell and her husband Robert Andrew Blackwell Sr. were disinterred from Washington Park Cemetery on Oct 10, 1999 and moved to Calvary Cemetery where they were both reburied next to each other on Oct 18, 1999.

This was done by the Army Corps of Engineers after the North section of Washington Park cemetery was acquired in 1996 by the City of St. Louis for purposes of “aviation obstruction removals and land use compatibility” relating to Lambert Airport’s longest runway, 12R-30L.
