Florence Lowenstein Marshall was the daughter of Sophia Mendelson Lowenstein (1847-1884) of New York and Benedict Lowenstein (1831-1879), a wealthy Bavarian immigrant. She was educated at The Normal College (now Hunter College) in New York. Within a few years, Louis and Florence Marshall had four children. They lived comfortably in a three-story brownstone house at Number 47 East 72nd Street in Manhattan, a block and half from Central Park; the US Census of 1900 indicates that four servants resided with the Marshalls at this address. The children attended the Ethical Culture School across Central Park from their home. Cyrus Adler relates that "...everything centered around the up-bringing of these children."
