C. R. Wilder is a mystery person. He doesn't appear to be connected to New Ipswich except though his brother Josiah, who live in Central Village and later in Wilder village. Were these letters part of Josiah's estate?

The letters were part of a collection of Wilder family documents donated to the NIHS. Calvin was indeed a brother to Josiah P. Wilder.
