The only evidence that I associate with the year 1623 is the will of Anne's second husband, Moses Wall. That will indeed calls out Anne's surviving Talcott children, but there is no Grace among them. See Moses Wall 1623 Will.
If no other contemporary evidence exists for this daughter, Grace Talcott, I suggest this was an error in print and not a real person. --Gene
Edited to add: Scratch that ... I am reading John's will, and see that he has a daughter Grace Talcott listed, but, she is not mentioned in Moses Wall's will, nor is she mentioned in either maternal grandparents' will, so we presume she died before 1616.
