Violet Paget was born in France on 14 October 1856, at Château St Leonard, Boulogne, to British expatriate parents, Henry Ferguson Paget and Matilda Lee-Hamilton (née Abadam). Violet Paget was the half-sister of Eugene Jacob Lee-Hamilton (1845–1907) by her mother's first marriage, and from whose surname she adapted her own pseudonym. Although she primarily wrote for an English readership and made many visits to London, she spent the majority of her life on the continent, particularly in Italy.
Sophia’s daughter Matilda, Violet’s mother, died in Florence in 1896 and was buried in the Allori cemetery, which was opened when the Swiss-owned English Cemetery was closed. Here also was buried Eugene’s little daughter Margaret Persis in 1904.
