In 1759, David Barton obtained a lease from Lord Fairfax in Leeds Parish of Fauquier Co. John Barton, believed to be David's brother, also had a lease in the area. A number of other Barton families (relation uncertain) were in the area. David had also been named as a surveyor in the Prince William Order Book of 1755-57 and was named again in 1769.
David Barton and Ruth Oldham, his wife, of Leeds Parish, Fauquier Co., sold their leases and household goods, with the last record being 2 Nov 1771. Court records show they were in Surry Co., NC, in 1772 (Surry Co., became Wilkes Co., NC, in 1778). Road Surveyor, Mill Owner, Keeper of an "Ordinary" (tavern), frequenter of the court records in the Northern Neck of VA.
According to legend, David was killed by British-led Indians while on a Daniel Boone led expedition to blaze the 'Wilderness Trail' into Kentucky in 1775.

David Barton's probate/estate records are clearly available and show that he did in 1772 in Surry NC. This David Barton was never in Kentucky. The David Barton who was in Kentucky was alive after 1772. Our David Barton's probate records clearly show his wife, Ruth, and other Thrashers that his daughters married. I hope the Daniel Boone legend finally dies with the proof in the estate records.David Barton was killed by Indians in one of Daniel Boone's first expeditions into Kentucky, and his name is listed on the monument at Fort Boonesborough. The monument reads: DEDICATED BY THEIR DECENDANTS TO THE SACRED MEMORY OF THE PIONEERS WHO ENTERED THE WILDERNESS OF WHAT LATER BECAME KENTUCKY AND FORMED THE SETTLEMENT KNOWN AS BOONESBOROUGH. FIRST FORTIFIED SETTLEMENT IN KENTUCKY. WE HONOR THESE AMONG THE FIRST FAMILIES OF KENTUCKY
