Source:Wilder, Moses Hale. Book of the Wilders : A Contribution to the History of the Wilders from 1497, in England, to the Emigration of Martha, a Widow,, p. 148, says Children of John Wilder and Sarah Sawyer [sic, VRs say 1705]: 3) Mary Wilder, b. 9 Jul 1703 [sic], m. 1731 William Richardson. Source:White, Almira Larkin. Genealogy of the Descendants of John White of Wenham and Lancaster, Massachusetts, p. 63, says Mary Wilder [#143], d/o John Wilder and Sarah White [#44], b. Lancaster 9 Jul 1705, d. Sterling 3 Mar 1789, m. 27 Dec 1721 William Richardson. Yet the will of John Wilder names his eldest daughter Mary Powers, and it is the probate of Ephraim Wilder who names a daughter Mary Richardson, so clearly these sources (and undoubtedly others) name the wrong parents.
