David was born in Tobermory, Ontario on August 13, 1888. He enlisted in December of 1915, but was discharged just months later in March of 1916 for being medically unfit (he had a weak right leg). David and his wife Evelyn Annie came to the Bad Heart area in 1919 and settled on the eastern half of 30-75-2-W6. His younger brother Thomas also enlisted in the Canadian army. David died on September 15, 1946 and was buried in the Teepee Creek Cemetery.
