LaJuan (Hill) McCartney was born on the farm near Hughes Springs, Texas to Samuel Moses and Clara Evelyn (Rowe) Hill on April 15, 1936. She was originally the 10th of eleven children, but when her mother passed away and her dad remarried, she had two younger brothers that were added to the family. She graduated from Hughes Springs high school and after graduation moved to Dallas, TX to join the workforce. It was in Dallas at church where she met her husband Ronald McCartney. They were married in Dallas on Nov 25, 1955.

The couple had a daughter, Patricia Renee McCartney, in Texas. They moved to Kansas in 1960, where Ron was from. While in Kensington, KS they had two boys Samuel James and Mark Raphael. LaJuan worked as wife and homemaker while the kids were growing up. She was an excellent seamstress and made clothes and blankets for people. She taught classes on sewing, knitting, and crocheting for 4-H kids. She raised gardens, canned vegetables, and helped in the community. She was active in the Assembly of God church, initially in Kensington, then Phillipsburg, and most recently in Heartland Worship Center where she attended. After the kids were grown, LaJuan worked at the hospital as a ward clerk. She was honored for 10+ years of service. After her retirement she spent most of her time at home, taking care of the house and sewing clothes for family and quilts for gifts. She handquilted all the quilts that she gave away.
