James Wilder was born in Lee Virginia to Reasor & Margaret Wilder. James was my Great Great grandfather. I don't know when he died. He was married several times & I believe he had 11 children. Their names are Wm Wilder born 1859, Lizzie Wilder born 1861, James Wilder born 1862, Thomas Wilder born 1866, Liddy Wilder born 1867, Nervie Wilder born 1874, Henry Wilder born 1875, Creed Wilder born 1876 & Matilda Wilder born 1877. I don't have any idea when each of the children died or who each of them married. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you. Do you happen to know anything about the other children?
Thank you. I knew that Sarah was one of his wives. I believe he was married to a Mary & then later to a Cynthia also but I don't know their maden names.
Creed Wilder was my great grandfather.  He married Frances Jane Manning and they had several children one of which was Daisy Wauneta Wilder (married name - Baldwin) who was my paternal grandmother.

I think this is the wrong James. Thr James I'm looking for was married to Sarah Mink in 1866. I've been told that he walked out on his family. I've never been able to find a death record.
