Wilder, John, was born in the town of Elba, N. Y., April 21, 1819, a son of Ezra
Wilder, who was one of the pioneers of Genesee county. In 1838 he was married to Rebecca A. Walker; she died in
1854, and in 1860 Mrs. Elizabeth Troop, a daughter of Richard and Phelinda (Logan) Gilbert became his wife. By
his first marriage he had two daughters: Adeliza, who was married to David Shotwell of Elba and is deceased; and
Florilla, the wife of Walter H. Raymond. Mr. Wilder was a practical and prosperous farmer, a man of unblemished
character, and in his death, which occurred March 20, 1884, his town lost one of its valuable residents.
