David was born in Ohio in 1793 to Philip Sutton and Charlotte Hopwood, daughter of John Hopwood and Hannah Bearcroft of Hopwood, PA.
(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Hopwood).

David in 1817 married Lucy Wells born 1798 in Vermont. They are found in the 1830 census in Norwalk, Huron, OH and move to Steuben County sometime between 1835 and 1840, where they are listed on the Census in Pleasant, Steuben County. Listed on the Census are Males: 1 under 5 yrs; 2 between 5-10 yrs, 3 between 15-20 yrs; Females: 1 between 10-15 and 2 between 40-50.

They had the following children:

They are buried at South Scott Cemetery. Her stone was broken and on the ground when I took this picture.  They are fragile and are often broken by the people who mow the grass.
