However, she was not the daughter of Anthony and Margery Eames, as that Anna Eames married William Ford and lived with him to an old age. Some say Thomas married Anna Johnson of Boston, a sister to Elizabeth whose husband, Robert Mears, in his will, called Thomas Wilder of lancaster his brother. Reading from another unverified source (http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/MAYFLOWER/2004-12/1103312750) As printed in the Register vol. 17 (1863) p. 345, as part of Wyman's series entitled "Abstracts of the Earliest Wills of Suffolk [County, Massachusetts]". Meeres, who signs with a mark, actually says: "I doe also make my beloued brother, James Johnson, and Mr. Thomas Wilder, Ouerseers of this my last will. 20 Feb. 1666." The brother being referred to is James Johnson, NOT Wilder, which makes sense if indeed Meeres' wife was Elizabeth (Johnson). That's more likely the explanation, rather than Johnson is a "Brother" in the church sense. Also, his unnamed wife is still alive and again it makes sense that he would ask a relative of hers to act as a co-overseer, if he's not naming one of his sons. Note also the use of the honorific "Mr" with Wilder suggests to me that THIS Wilder is NOT Thomas of Lancaster. After all, Meeres is in Boston and in those days that's a day and a half planned trip into the city. Its likely that Mr refers to another Wilder, most likely a minister or a distinguished church member. Check James Savage (which is available on-line) for other Wilders. {Example: It took several decades for John Lake to move socially up the ladder from tailor to merchant John Lake. At his death in 1677, he was socially a "Mr." and named another merchant "Mr" as a co-overseer of his will. One of the other overseers was a deacon from the Second Church of Boston as Lake's then wife's nearest relation was her mother living out in Concord.} Robert M. Gerrity YANKEE ANCESTRY P. O.

| 2006 | SOURCE: The Book of The Wilders, 3rd Printing (The Immigrant Generation, page 19) Many researches and other enthusiasts have confused this family with that of another THOMAS WILDER of Shiplake, yeoman (son of Richard) who died in 1619. This Thomas married in 1606 at Reading, Berkshire to Martha Keene and had sons Isaac, Mathew and Abraham and daughtrs Elizabeth and Marie. There were so many Wilders in the ara at that time, so it is not known whether Thomas Wilder who died in 1619 was desccended from one of the seven sons of Nicholas or was from another migration. There are records showing Wilders in the region before the time of King Henry VII, in whose Army our Nicholas was a military Chieftain. Also, a notion has circulated that our widow Martha Wilder of Shiplake was Martha Higgs. This was apparently based on a statement in the Higgs genealogy to the effect that the Thomas Wilder of Shiplake had, in earlier chapters intermarried with the Higgs faily. Martha was not found in that family. Careful reading of that statement shows that it referred to Thomas's Aunt Eleanor Wilder who married a Higgs and not to Thomas himself. So, we are still without a maiden name for Martha, thanks, no doubt, to whoever tore out the pages of the Shiplake register. | Wilder, Thomas (of Sulham) (I20226)

A selectman, and Ford's History of Clinton says he woned a large tract of land there. He served in King William's War (1689-98) and in Queen Anne's War (1701-13). He married June 25, 1668 at Lancaster, Massachusetts Other notes: The Old Book had several errors for this family. Date of his marriage given as 1678, should have been 1668, as correctly given on page 13 of source. - Sarah Wilder married Hartwell, not Fairbank. - Mary married Fairbank, not Hartwell. The date 1691, given as her birth date is really her marriage date, as confirmed by her first child born 1693. (See Fairbank Genealogy, page 67). Real date of birth is shown by her dying in 1718 "in 43rd year" hence born 1675. | Wilder, Thomas 2 (Captain) III (I22983)

| 2037 | The family are well known from the 1700s as living in Sulham, but their first link to the village dates to the mid-1500s, when the younger John (son of John and Agnes) married Alice Keats, the only child, and daughter of Thomas Keats of Sulham House. Thomas Keats was the first builder of this house and, through their marriage, this passed to the Wilders, although it's believed that the family continued to base themselves in Shiplake during this period as their main home. Alice and John had four sons - John, Nicholas, William and Thomas. They also had three daughters, named Eleanor, Joan and Alice. In 1582 the large, three-storied Sulham House was granted to the couple's son William, through a grant by his father, and this is where he lived. The property stayed in the Wilder family until 1777, when it was sold by Rev. Henry Wilder. The relationship between John and Alice seems to have been strong; she was named executor in his will, they had seven children together and were married at the time John finished his will in October 1588. The couple then, lived through the later Elizabethan period and would have celebrated that summer with bonfires and wine on news that the Spanish Armada had been defeated. In the same year, John's youngest brother Thomas, also died. The Wilders of the next generation were known to be of the Puritan faith, and so it is possible that Alice and John had similar religious leanings. They were therefore safe from the hunting down of Catholics under Elizabeth, unlike other local figures like Sir Francis Englefield. | Wilder, John (of Nunhide) (I12912)

| 2042 | The son of George Bowers (immigrant) of Scituate, MA, John Bowers immigrated from England at a young age with his parents, and graduated from Harvard in 1649. He was a school master in Plymouth Colony from 1652-1653, and was called to New Haven by Gov. Eaton and taught school in there for about 7 years (1653-1660). He was pastor of Guilford and preached in Branford after Rev. Pierson left (1667 to Feb. 1673). On Nov. 19, 1673, he was ordained and became the first pastor of Derby remainng there until he died in 1687. The town of Derby voted to build a house for their pastor & his family on Nov. 18, 1673 to be finished by the next May. He was to receive £35 for the first year. At a town meeting at Derby, April 18, 1677, he was grated 12 acres, a lot on which to build his home, all the swamp adjacent to his 12 acres of land. On Feb. 22, 1676, he was granted 3 acres of meadow called David's meadow on the west side of the brook. Dec. 30, 1678, the town agreed to give Mr. Bowers 15 pounds added to his 35 pounds to make his fence. His wife was my ancestor, REBECCA GREGSON, daughter of THOMAS & JANE GREGSON. After her death, he married Bridget Thompson. In "A History of the First Church & Society of Branford, CT, 1544-1919" by J. Rupert Simonds, he is described as not having eloquence or popularity, but he was honest, hard-working & a personal life above reproach. His will dated Jan. 8, 1686, was witnessed by son-in-law John Frisbie and was recorded at Derby. "...my will is yt after my deceace my dearly beloved wife Bridget Bowers Shall have ye dispose of my whole Estate to dispose of it amongst our children..." I can honestly not say which of his wives was the mother of his children since there are no marriage dates for them, but the following children were born: 1. Ruth Bowers b. Dec. 20, 1657 at Branford; died April 26, 1736 in Branford; m. John Frisby 2. Mary Bowers b. 1665 in New Haven, CT., m. Samuel Nichols 3. Samuel Bowers b. Nov. 5, 1665, d. after 1710, m.

| 2047 | This name is also spelled James Tuffts. Lived in Deerfield, Hampshire County, Massachusetts Bay Colony (Deerfield is now in Franklin County). Among the teamsters killed at Bloody Brook. The teamsters were hauling grain to storage, under the protection of Captain Thomas Lothrop and his soldiers. James Tufts held property early as the village of Deerfield was planned and settled. "TUFFTS, James, s. of Peter and Mary of Charlestown; he was a settler of 1673 and killed with Lothrop; he prob. settled on No. 37, which was sold by Peter Tuffts to Simon Beaman in 1687." -Sheldon According to the "Beefe" account, James Tufts was "of Deerfield." -NEHGR Like many others killed in the battle, James Tufts was young and unmarried. He did have a son, however: his namesake James Tufts. The child's mother was Elizabeth Wells, later Bathrick. Although the Tufts family initially denied that James had impregnated Elizabeth, the child was completely accepted into the Tufts family. Peter Tufts, grandfather of the child, raised him and named him in his will. Elizabeth Wells Bathrick died in 1674, a year before the battle at Bloody Brook. The child James Tufts was thus orphaned as an infant.

Wilder BERLIN/WORCESTER - Lorraine Jean Wilder, 81, passed away from cancer with courage and dignity on Nov. 20 at her home in Berlin with family at her side. For many years, she and her late husband, Ivers, had lived in Worcester on property they transformed from a wooded lot into a beautiful manicured homestead. Lorraine was a religious woman; though she did not often attend church, she knew that God was everywhere and heard her prayers. Lorraine was born Aug. 10, 1935, in Danville, Vermont, and was the youngest child of Charles and Gladys Bryer Pillsbury. Her siblings included Charles Pillsbury, Maybelle Barnett, Charlotte Smith, Mona Pillsbury, all deceased, and surviving her are Gladys Spencer, of Milford, New Jersey, and Richard Pillsbury, of Kimberling City, Missouri. Lorraine attended St. Johnsbury Academy. She married Ivers M. Wilder Jr. on July 5, 1952, and spent 56 years together until he died in 2008. They raised their five children in Montpelier. First born was Milon, who died in 1980 and left his wife Debra and daughter. Lorraine’s surviving children and their partners are Denise Wilder (Michael Fullerton), of North Calais; Jean Wilder (William Devaughn), of Montpelier; Les Wilder (Angela), of Worcester; and Ruth Wilder (Peter Mayhew), of Marshfield. Lorraine retired from the Vermont Department of Employment and Security in 1996 where she was employed for 26 years. Prior to that, she worked for the Vermont Motor Vehicle Department. Lorraine enjoyed her positions, but could not wait for her retirement so she and Ivy could spend more time with family, friends and travel through the United States. A vivacious woman, Lorraine loved company and made her home welcoming by cooking many birthday and holiday meals. She spent her leisure time gardening, knitting, sewing, rug hooking and baking while listening to classic country music. She was a member of the Trinity Methodist Church in Montpelier, the Women’s Auxiliary VFW Post 792, and the Good Neighbor Club of Worcester. Some of the dearest words to Lorraine were to hear Gram and Great Gram. She has four grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren: Jennifer Wilder and her children, Christopher and Jade Perry, of Berlin; Thurman (Harmony) Wilder and their children, Olivia and Ariana, and his stepson, Kyle, of Barre; Amber (Jake) Larrabee and their sons Landin, Jaxin and Corbin, of Barre; Michael (Annie Michaud) and his sons Riley and Devin, of Plainfield. Lorraine had deep connections to her special friends and her dogs. She grieved for the passings of Beverly and Fred Fisher, of Montpelier, and her dogs, Ling and Molly. During the last few years, soothing words and laughter have been shared with her dear friends, Celia Winters, of Plainfield, and Faye Sweet, of Middlesex. Cousin and Aunt Lorraine was a key player in organizing Bryer family reunions and remembered the birthdays and holidays with many nieces and nephews. Lorraine was especially grateful to the medical care she got from Dr. Kristopher Jensen, of Berlin Family Health, and for the professional and caring attention of Central Vermont Home Health & Hospice staff, and especially to hospice nurse Kay Gould during the last few months of her life. A memorial service will be at the Worcester United Methodist Church at 11 a.m., Friday, Dec. 2. A luncheon will follow at the Worcester Town Hall. There are no calling hours. Interment of her ashes will be in the spring at the Worcester Mountain Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to charities Lorraine favored such as Central Vermont Home Health & Hospice, Inc. 600 Granger Road, Barre, VT 05641, or local children and women’s aid organizations.
