[1] Her brother, Philip Sargant Florence, became an economist and married the birth control activist Lella Faye Secor.

[1] Alix and James's journey to Vienna in 1920 is seen as a key event in the development of psychoanalysis.

[1] Their translations remain the standard editions of Freud's works to this day.

She lived at Marlow, Buckinghamshire, in the house "Lord's Wood" built for her mother (1899–1900).
