David Coburn was born 16 Mar 1789 in Cornish, NH, son of Asa Coburn and Letitia Nevins. His wife was Phebe Jewett.
"Among the most worthy of memory is Mr. David Coburn, born in New Hampshire, he came to Berkshire when a young man, and by his sterling integrity and worth as well as by his warm attachment to the church, and zeal in advancing her interests, won a name and a lace that will not soon perish. He too was an efficient officer in the Church [Calvary Episcopal] for 24 years. In 1842, his earthly career closed. Only four hours intervened between his death and that of his estimable wife. One grave received them, and deeply were they mourned.
Mr. Coburn, though beginning with nothing, and dying when scarcely past middle life, had managed by honest industry, sound judgment, and due economy, to accumulate a property which afforded a handsome little portion for each of his children. Two sons and three daughters remain with use, to quicken and preserve the memories of their excellent parents." (Hemenway, Vol. II, p. 119)
