    Josiah Wilder ye Son of John & Sarah [Sawyer] Wilder was born June ye 6th : 1700. [The maiden name Sawyer is given in the published version. Presumably, it is based on her mother's second marriage to Thomas Sawyer (e.g., perhaps a mention in the will of Mary Sawyer?), but Sarah got married before the death of her father, Josiah White, in 1714, and therefore should be Sarah White.]
