William Savil was the son of William and grandson of George Savil of Saffron Walden Co. Essex, England, and was baptized there 24 February 1604/1605. He apparently was unmarried when he came to New England. Savage says that he was at Braintree in 1640. Sprague says he was first of record about 1641 at Cambridge where he was employed by Nathaniel Eaton. (Lechford's Notebook). He was a joiner. He came to Braintree in 1642 where his sister Anne wife of Samuel Bass had located, but he is not mentioned at all in town records. In his will in 1669 he twice calls Deacon Samuel Bass his brother and makes him an executor.
There is no record of the purchase of his homestead which was on present School Street in Quincy, where the Presbyterian Church now stands. It remained in the hands of his descendants more than 150 years. In 1667 William Savil with four others purchased a large tract of land in present Wollaston known as "Salter's Farm" from the heirs of William Tyng, his share being one quarter part. (See also NEHGR 107:218.)
He married 1st Hannah Tidd (or Teed), daughter of John & Margaret Tydd of Charlestown and Woburn. She died 14 June 1650. John Tydd's will mentions his son Savell's children, Benjamin, Hannah, John, and Samuel.
The will of William Savil of Braintree is dated 19 February 1668/1669. (NEGHR 48:323)
