"[Second Generation]
4. ii. BENJAMIN, second son and child of Benjamin and Mary Child of Roxbury, was born in Roxbury, in 1656.
. . .
Moved by the charms of a fair young maiden, he asked her hand in marriage, and on the 7th of March, 1683, he was united in holy wedlock to Grace Morris, who was born Feb. 17, 1661, a daughter of Deacon Edward and Grace Bett Morris.

This union, so complete, was broken by death, but for an exceedingly brief period. Mrs. Grace Morris Child died on the 10th of December, 1723, and her husband joined her on the 24th of January, 1724.
