Saunders was the son of William Saunders, a housewright and cabinet maker in Cambridge, and Sarah Flagg. Through his Sarah Flagg Saunders, Charles Hicks Saunders was the great-grandson of John Hicks, an American Patriot killed by the British in Arlington, Massachusetts during the British retreat from Concord. He was married to Mary Brooks, née Ball, in 1849.
