Note 2: The DFHS Marriages confirm the marriage of John Boyce to Jane Ward at Shaldon on 12/2/1828. The register of St Nicolas Shaldon gives the marriage by banns of John Boyce to Jane Ward 12 Feb 1828, the witnesses William C Ward & Elizabeth Boyce (sister)

John Boyce married Grace Dunn by licence on 16 March 1857 at St Mary Major, Exeter. The marriage certificate gives John as of age, widower, watchmaker, residing at East Teignmouth, son of John Boyce watchmaker. John senior is not given as deceased. This establishes that there was a previous generation of watchmakers and fits with the establishment of the Boyce watch making business around 1798. Grace Dunn was given as of age, spinster, living at St Mary Major, Exeter, daughter of Richard Dunn, farmer (again not given as deceased). The witnesses were Thomas and Emma J Avent. The Avents are in the 1861 census living at South Street, St Mary Major, Exeter: Thomas Avent, aged 49, jeweller, and Emma J, his daughter, aged 24. John Boyce and Thomas Avent were obviously linked through the jewellery and clock trade.

Personal Notes:
The link to her parents is UNPROVEN but supported by circumstantial evidence.
Her death was registered March 1851 Newton Abbott 10 116. She died on 27th January 1851 at Wellington Row, East Teignmouth of Phthiosis tuberculosa - the death certificate gives her age as 50 years in agreement with John's bible.

The link with Willian Ward is through the 1841 census and he was witness at her marriage.
