Bernard was born 16 November 1898 in Patterson Township, Darke County, Ohio.  His parents were Nicholas Grilliot and Amelia Magoto, who were both Ohio-born children of French Catholic immigrants. Frances Marie Drees was born 28 December 1900 near McCartyville.  She was the youngest child of J.M. "Mike" Drees and Mary Catherine Wilkens, who were both Ohio-born children of German-Catholic immigrants.

Bernard and Frances were married 31 May 1921 at Sacred Heart Church in McCartyville.  They had ten children, born between 1922 and 1940.  Bernard ran a local farm implement business, which he later sold to his sons, Bernard "Buddy" and Tom Grilliot.  Bernard Otto Grilliot passed away 24 February 1980 and Frances Grilliot passed away 17 Feb 1988.
