Frederick Santee was first married to Edith Rundle in December 1927 when she was 37 and he was 21. They met while both were in Rome studying Latin earlier that year. Edith was also a Latin scholar and graduated from the University of Missouri in 1914 with an A.B. and B.S. in education with a specialization in Latin. Santee later claimed that he felt pressured to marry her and only did so out of kindness, not because he was in love with her. They adopted a daughter, Ruth, while living in Nashville in 1930. They divorced in 1941 and Edith moved to the Philippines to teach at a government school. She never remarried.
