The older children being born in the family's log cabin on the same 630 acre spread. It is likely that she is named after Mary Alice Arnold Collins, her father's sister.

On Feb 9, 1919 Dr Anderson met with an untimely death due to the influenza complicated by scarlet fever. Alice returned to Bozeman, MT where her second daughter Roberta was born on Sept 29, 1919.
Shortly after the birth of Roberta, Alice moved the two of them down to Long Beach, Ca to be with her parents. She attended UCLA (University of California at Los Angeles) to renew her teaching credentials, but later decided in 1924 to take a job with the City of Long Beach, as the Deputy City Tax Collector. She held that job until 1952.
In 1956 Alice went to live in Paris, with her daughter Roberta, who was assigned to the US Delegation of NATO. For 4 years she enjoyed living in Paris and traveling in Europe.
