David PAINTER 2 August 1786 in Middle Creek MM, Berkeley County, Virginia.

He was born 1 November 1761 in Frederick County, Virginia, and was christened in Hopewell MM, Frederick County, Virginia. He was the son of John PAINTER and Susanna STRATTON. David died 1843 in Paintersville, Greene County, Ohio. He was a Quaker of Crooked Run MM, Frederick County, Virginia: "On 3rd/3rd/1800, David Painter and wife Martha and children Hannah, Jesse, Jacob, and Thomas, were granted certificate to Westland MM to settle near the Little Miammi West of the River Ohio." They settled in what is now Green County, Ohio, in 1801.

THE STATE OF OHIO, HISTORY OF GREENE COUNTY, CAESAR'S CREEK TOWNSHIP, EARLY SETTLERS.

In the younger days of this century, a Quaker named David Painter, left a number of the Friends at Waynesville, Warren County, and traversed an old Indian trace leading from the aforementioned village to Chillicothe, and settled on the stream which was subsequently Painter's Creek-named after him-on land now owned by Harvey C. Folkner.

PAINTERSVILLE,

The only village in the township, is in its eastern part, and contains about one hundred and fifty inhabitants. About 1840 Jesse Painter, son of David, laid out his farm, containing one hundred and fifty acres, into town lots, and sold them at from twenty to twenty-five dollars per acre, according to location. Jesse Painter and Jonathan Oglesbee owned stores on the site before it was laid out, and immediately thereafter, Joseph Oglesbee erected a frame on the lot where John Mason now lives. Next was erected the brick building now owned by Lewis Thomas, by Cornelius King. Several log cabins were then erected, which have in turn given way to frame and brick structures. The village is on the line of the proposed Columbus and Cincinnati Narrow Gauge Railroad. A number of new buildings are in process of erection, and should the road be completed, an era of prosperity will dawn on the inhabitants of the town and vicinity
