Although he had no formal education, D.D. Mullin's life touched many
people. He organized 30 churches, 18 of which were in Indian Territory.

Daniel David was born on a farm near Macon, Georgia on 17 March 1825. He received his calling to preach in 1847, and married Sarah E. Debro on 17 May 1849. They had two children in Georgia and moved to Alabama in 1867 and had their other six children. They then moved to Texas in 1871
(Hamilton County, Comanche County, and then Grayson County.) They finally moved to Indian Territory, northwest of Marietta (OK) in 1885. Daniel organized churches and preached the whole way.

As a boy, he became afflicted with "White Swelling" (Tuburculosis of the Bone) in his right leg. His bone finally burst, and the leg never did mend completely. It was thusly challenged that Daniel walked from Georgia
to Oklahoma alongside an ox cart laden with his wife and smallest children.

His grandson described him as the most tolerant man he had ever known. He was never unpleasant, though his trials were many. He described him as being at least six feet tall and weighing at least 190 pounds. His style of preaching was loud and rapid. He could quote scriptures and expounded them to his hearers. He pastored as many as four churches at a time, preaching four sermans a month in each. Most of the churches had been organized by him. His compensation in monetary values was small. He asked for none and received little. He was a farmer for five days a week and preached on Saturdays and Sundays.

At the age of 68, cancer seized hold of his body, and he passed away 23 January, 1894. He was honored in Oct of 1895 when the Mullins Baptist Association was formed and still exists to this day.
