David was baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with his parents and the rest of the family in 1837. They moved to Iowa to be near the Saints.

While living in Iowa, David, age 34, was felling trees. A young sapling hit him in the face, severing his nose. He made his way home before passing out. His family put his nose back in place and bandaged him as best they could. A hole was left in his forehead making it necessary for him to wear a patch on his forehead all his life.

David and his family crossed the plains in the fall of 1850. Upon their arrival in the valley, they were sent to Payson, Utah to help settle the area.

Although he practiced polygamy, he eventually built homes for his two wives in different places. Nancy settled in Farmington and Mary Ann in Southern Utah.

David assisted in building the Logan Temple. He was skillful with tools. He also developed skills as surgeon and was the only doctor in the valley for many years. He remained devoted to the church.
