The Wildbores in America
“The Wildbores in America” by John Reid Wilbor is a comprehensive continuation and expansion of the genealogical records of the Wildbore family, first introduced in his 1907 publication. This multi-volume series meticulously documents the descendants of Samuel Wildbore, an early immigrant to America, through successive generations, reaching up to the twelfth generation. Each volume enriches the family’s lineage by incorporating new findings and corrections from earlier editions, alongside exploring the evolution of the family surname from Wilbore to its various present-day forms such as Wilbur and Wilber. The book serves not only as a valuable resource for members of the Wildbore family but also contributes to the broader field of genealogical study in America, providing insights into the familial and migratory patterns that have shaped the country.
