Did Sally Bridgham marry Lewis Wilder, b in Hangham, Ma.? If so, they had a son, Frederick Prescott Wilder, b Jul 16, 1833 in Milo, Piscataqua Co., Maine.
This is from a post in the Home:Surnames:Wilder Family Geneology Forum form Marianne Iiams, Oct 9, 1998. (http://genforum.familytreemaker.com/wilder/messages/142.html)
The 1800 census shows that Joseph's (Sally's father) household had 2 girls under 10. This implies that Sally may have been born before 1800.

IGI Batch# F500408, Sheet 37, shows Lewis Wilder marrying Sarah Bridgeham about 1826. I assume that Sarah Bridgeham is Sally Bridgham.
The 1840 Maine census lists the household of Lewis Wilder in Charleston, consisting of 1 girl under 5 (probably Olive), 1 boy and 2 girls between 5 and 10 (probably Frederick, Sarah and Nancy), 1 boy and 1 girl between 10 and 15 (probably Henry and Eliza), a woman between 30 and 40 (probably Sally), and a man between 40 and 50 (probably Lewis). Lewis lived just a few doors from Ellsworth Bridgham, Sally's brother.
