Samuel Wildbore (ca. 1595-1656) was the first known Wildbore immigrant to America. He and his wife, Ann, were married in England and came with their children to America in 1633. They joined the First Boston Church in Boston, Massachusetts, later moving to Providence, Rhode Island, for religious freedom. After Ann died, Samuel married Elizabeth Lechford, the widow of Thomas Lechford. Some related families still live(d) in England. Descendants and other related families live(d) in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, and elsewhere.
