Hi there,
My descendants are all wyldes. we have traced them back to about 1300. I know that John Wylde went to Virginia in about 1621 with A Sir John Zouche and they attempted to start an iron works on the banks of the river at Falling Creek Henrico County. It didn't turn out to be a success and Sir JZ returned to die in 1636. We believe that this particular John Wylde (there were many) stayed there.
We'd love to hear from you if this is of any interest.
Regards
Paul winch
