She married the Welsh psychiatrist William Rees-Thomas, a colleague: 1887 - 1978. "He married in 1917 — presumably while on leave from army service— Muriel Hodgson Jones, a clergyman’s daughter, whom he had met while at Moss Side. By her he had a son and daughter; the latter married DWT Roberts, obstetrician and gynaecologist to St George’s Hospital. His first wife died in 1935, and in 1948 he married Ruth Darwin, a granddaughter of Charles Darwin who, like himself, was a senior commissioner of the Board of Control, having previously for many years been actively engaged in promoting the welfare of the mentally defective. After their retirement they lived at High Hackhurst, near Abinger Hammer in Surrey, where they devoted themselves to the beautifying of their garden, which was regularly open to the public. Mrs Rees-Thomas died in 1972 but her husband lived for another six years, dying in 1978 at the age of 91."
