  Notes	John Wilder, son of Thomas, married in 1672; his wife's name was Hannah. At the Indian war he fled to Charlestown, where two of his children were baptized; his daughter Hannah was born in 1769, in Marlboro. We know not when he returned to Lancaster, but that is supposed to have been the place of his abode, and we know not the time of his death. He was one of the original proprietors of the town of Worcester, but it is not known that he ever resided there. He had six children, four sons and two daughters, most of whom lived in South Lancaster, then known as Six Nations, and now the town of Clinton, from which it is supposed that their father's home was there.
