I may have read "Federation" by H. Beam Piper.
I would add "Candy Smith-Foster" in "Emergence" in 1984 by David Palmer to this list.

I would also add "Friday" in "Friday" in 1984 by Robert Heinlein.
And I would add "Hazel Meade" later "Hazel Stone" in "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress" in 1966 and "The Rolling Stones" in 1952 by Robert Heinlein. Also "Wyoming "Wyoh" Knott-Davis".

Quoting from Wikepedia:
Clarissa MacDougall. She is a beautiful, curvaceous, red-haired nurse, who eventually becomes the first human female to receive her own Lens. Their children, a boy and two pairs of fraternal twin sisters, grow up to be the five Children of the Lens. In their breeding, "almost every strain of weakness in humanity is finally removed". They are born already possessing the powers taught to second-stage Lensmen.
Strangely enough at one point in my life I was a nurse but after
IO was a nurse I was a redhead.
