William was born about 1625 in Braintree, Norfolk, Massachusetts and married 22 July 1650, in , Norfolk, Massachusetts, Elizabeth DAVIES the daughter of Mrs Margaret DAVIES. She was born about 1634 in and died 3 June 1702 in. William died 17 January 1702 in.
1663. Charles Grice died this year, and in his will (executed 1661, 11, 9, proved 1663, 11, 12), after making provision for his wife Margery, "whom God hath continued with me now these 13 years to be helpful and serviceable to me in my aged and help, less condition." he then also provides for his son-in-law, William Owen, "for his filial care and love expresses to me in my aged condition." He gives all his estate "both movable and immovable" to wife Margery for life; and at her death, William Owen to have all movable estate for three years; and if on notice being sent to England, to Charles Grice's son David, he should not come to New England for three years, and if also the nephews of testator do not come within said time, then the estate is confirmed forever to William Owen.
When he calls William Owen his "son-in-law", he means, strictly speaking, step son-in-law; as William Owen had married a daughter of Charles Grice's second wife, but born of her first marriage; or, in other words, he had married a step daughter of Charles Grice.
