David served in the Revolutionary War. From A History of Schenectady (NY) During the Revolution, by Willis T. Hanson, Jr., Interlaken, NY: Heart of the Lakes Publishing, 1988, p. 208:

"He was enrolled under Captain Abraham Oothout, 2nd Albany County Militia. At various times he served as "an express rider" and on one occasion was taken prisoner by the Indians and carried to their camp. He made his escape on the following night and returned to the service. He was often on duty drawing wood to and from various posts. Once while returning from Lake George the Indians drove him from his regular crossing, and he had to swim the river with his horses and wagon. He was at the Upper Fort, Schoharie, when Timothy Murphy fired on the flag of truce sent forward by Sir John Johnson, in the engagement at Cobleskill and in pursuit of the enemy after the raid on Ballston. He performed various garrison and guard duties, being stations from August to October, 1781, at Claas Viele's Rifts. His widow received a pension."
