He was a cousin of Samuel Wilbore of Portsmouth. Samuel came from Sible Hedingham, Essex, England, in 1633. He lived first in Boston, then removed to Portsmouth in 1637.

He was called cousin several times in the will of Samuel Wilbore Jr., the son of Samuel Wilbore of Boston, who was born in Braintree, England, the son of Nicholas and Elizabeth Wilbore of Sible Hedding-ham, Essex County, England, and grandson of Nicholas and Ann Wil­bore of Colchester, Essex County, England.

He first appeared in the legal records when his cousin Samuel of Boston transferred to him a piece of land in Portsmouth, 10 July 1654. He also owned land touching the land of Samuel Sr. and also of Samuel Jr. in Portsmouth, on the west road there near the coal mines. He lived on the farm which later became the Burrington Anthony farm, on the road that leads to the ferry, bound on the south by Freeborne Street.

Besides owning land in Portsmouth, he bought much land in LC and about 1690 four of his sons settled there--Samuel, William Jr., John and Joseph. He had two other sons, Daniel who settled in Swan­sea, and Benjamin who settled in Dartmouth.
Samuel owned what is now the Oliver H. Wilbor Place, Joseph settled on what was later the Isaac W. Rowland place on the road south of the Commons, John settled on the place later owned by Walter Bul­lock on the Long Highway, and son William owned what was afterwards the Ephraim Sisson place near the South Shore.

In the will of William Wilbore of Portsmouth, recorded there, dated 1 March 1710 and proved 15 Aug. 1710, he gives as follows: ". . . To son John Wilbore's two children, John and Mary Records, 30 pounds; to son Daniel Wilbore all land in the first division, great neck in Swan­sea; to son Samuel 43 pounds which he owes me; to daughter Mary Mowrey money that she owes me and then to her children; to son Joseph Wilbore 100 pounds in money; to son John Wilbore 20 pounds in money; to son Benjamin Wilbore the money which is due me from Daniel Wil-cox; to daughter Martha Sherman 10 pounds and to daughter Joan 10 pounds; to four sons, John, William, Joseph and Samuel, all my lands that I now have in the township of Little Compton equally divided between them.

Conflicts with previously given information saying William b. 1630 was the SON OF SAMUEL WILDBORE on whose lands William settled on. The record shows that he received in 1654 a deed of ten acres from Samuel Wilber, Sr., of Taunton.
See conflicting record: William Wilbore of Braintree, Essex, England, died probably in Portsmouth, RI between 1 Mar and 15 Aug 1710. On 30 Mar 1647 he bought land of Jonas Webb in Braintree, but on 2 Jan 1650 he sold this land to Thomas and Mary Rowell. On 10 July 1654 10 acres of land in Portsmouth were transferred to him by his COUSIN, SAMUEL WILBORE. A weaver of cloth, he was granted 10 acres of land by the town of Portsmouth on 10 Dec 1657. He was appointed Constable for the terms beginning 1 June in the years 1668, 1674 and 1676. He served in the colonial legislature in 1672 and 1687. On 12 Sep 1680 he was of record as tax collector. On 20 April 1687 he sold 8 acres north of Philip Sherman's land to Eber Sherman. In 1694 he was again a member of the Assembly at Newport. He was a large landowner in Portsmouth, Tiverton, Little Compton and Swansea. He was illiterate, possibly because he spent a large part of his youth in Old Providence Island. The birth of his children, probably in Portsmouth, were recorded much later at Tiverton. Slade-Babcock Genealogy pub. 1970 by Carl Boyer III pg. 99.
NOTE - He served as a member of the Assembly at Newport in 1694, and if he had been born in 1630, he would have been 64 at the time he served. His first child would have been born when he was 24, however his wife, if she was Sarah Holmes, would have been 14, and their last child would have been born when he was 40, and she was 30. Also, his parents were married in 1616, and his older brother was born in 1617, so he could have been born closer to 1620, further alienating the possibility that his wife was Martha Holmes.
On 10 July 1654, when Martha Holmes was barley 14 and living in Newport, RI,
William obtained 10 acres of land in Portsmouth, RI, and William's first child was born in Portsmouth that year.
