He is presumed to have been 'the child that my wife now ...' mentioned in the will of his father. Edward died October 28, 1690 in probably, Hingham, MA, at 71 years of age. Mr. George Lincoln says he was 'stricken suddenly with malignant fever.' He married Elizabeth Eames circa 1652 in probably, Hingham, MA. Elizabeth was born before June 13, 1624 (chr. date) in Fordington, Dorsetshire, England. Elizabeth was the daughter of Anthony Eames and Margery Pierce.

Mr. George Lincoln wrote that Edward received a grant of land in Hingham 'containing ten acres, the 8th of Oct. 1637, 'in a place as convenient as can be discovered.' He subsequently received other grants from the town, including a tract situated next to that given to his mother, the widow Martha Wilder, in 1638, which was located at or near the junction of Main and Pleasant Sts., and inc. the est. now' (1893) 'owned by heirs of Fearing Loring, deceased. He also owned all the land between Tower's Bridge and Wilder's Bridge ...'(38) Rev. Moses Wilder wrote that he had been 'associated with his mother in business relations until her death in 1652.' Rev. Wilder notes that he was made a freeman in 1645, and suggests his birth year was 1624, based on the presumed age of twenty one then. 16 May 1664 he sold to John Tower 5 acres given by the town 'unto Martha Wilder, my mother' in Hingham, New Plymouth Colony.(39) Traditions of the family of Edward Wilder are found in a letter written by his great grandson, Edwin Wilder of Hingham, which Rev. Wilder quoted in his book. Edwin opined that all of the Wilders in Hingham, and in the state of Massachusetts, descended from Edward, except for those of a family in Lancaster (descendants of Thomas), 'and we do not know of any relationship between us and them.'(40)

http://ralphinla.rootsweb.com/wildrich.htm#i1791m. He married Elizabeth Eames, daughter of Lieut. Anthony Eames.² Edward Wilder was born in 1620 at Shiplake, Oxfordshire, England.

     Thomas Wilder Thomas Wilder was born probably before 1578. Thomas died late in 1618/19 in Shiplake, Oxfordshire, England, at 41 years of age. He married Martha Keene Jan 1606 in St. Mary, Reading, Berkshire, England. Martha was born before 1591 in probably, Oxfordshire, England. Martha died April 20, 1652 in Hingham, New Plymouth Colony, at 61 years of age. Martha was buried April 22, 1652 in Hingham, New Plymouth Colony. In Thomas Wilder's will written 3 January 1618/19 in Shiplake, Oxfordshire, England, Martha was named as his wife and executrix. She disposed of her husbands holdings in Shiplake by deed in 1620 and 1621. How she was maintained thereafter has not been discovered. In 1638, she determined to move to New England, coming with her daughter Mary. It has been speculated that she intended to join her presumed children, Elizabeth and Edward Wilder, who apparently had preceded them. The ship's passenger list has been preserved. 'Martha Wild'r of Shiplocke in Oxfords'r spinster' and 'Mary Wild'r her Daughter' appear on 'The List of the Names of the Passeng'rs Intended for New England in the good shipp the Confidence of London of CC. tonnes, John Jobson, M'r. And thus by vertue of the Lord Treas'rs warr't of the xj'th of Aprill, 1638. Southampton, 24 Aprill, 1638.' This list is divided by the author of the article in which it was published into sections by families; three family groups from 'Go'n'sham in Oxon' surround the Wilder party. In each section a relationship is specified, such as 'children' or 'servants.' No such relationships are noted in the Wilder section, and the others in that group have no town of origin named. Those included were Augustin Bearce age 20, John Keene 17, Martha Keene 60, Eliza: Keene 13, and Martha, Josias, and Sara Keene whose ages were not reported. It is this association with the Keene family, combined with the marriage record in Reading, which leads the present author to his assignment of Martha's surname. No mention of any of these Keenes has been found in New England records before 1659, when a John Keene, seaman, was listed. Perhaps they perished soon of disease, or returned to England; perhaps they just missed the boat. Rev. Moses Wilder, and his successor, Dr. Edwin Wilder, cite family traditions relating the immigrants Thomas and Edward Wilder as brothers. Both authors offer the conjecture that Martha Wilder had sent two sons and a daughter to New England, with friends, before her departure with her remaining daughter. No document has been found to support this speculation, which may well be dismissed if the will of Thomas Wilder of Shiplake is considered to be that of the husband of this Martha who immigrated to Massachusetts. Thomas was bequeathed six acres in Mapledurham in the will of his father written 24 April 1596 in Shiplake, Oxfordshire, England. In Richard Wilder's will written 24 April 1596 in Shiplake, Oxfordshire, England, Thomas was named as his son and executor. He had a lease of land in the parish of Shiplake, in Oxfordshire.
