I know very little about David Spaulding. He was born in Indiana about 1874.  I know his father was born in Kentucky and his mother was born in Indiana, but I don't know their names.  I have been told that he was either full-blooded or half-blooded Indian, but I have found no proof of that, and that seems unlikely.   He was able to read and write, and his occupation is listed as a farmer.

The 1910 census says David Spaulding had been married 8 years, so David and Mary Miller were probably married about 1902.  They had 3 children: Ada, Eliza and Violet.  In 1910 they lived in Jennings County, Bigger (or Bizzer?) Township, Indiana.  David Spaulding died sometime between 1910 and 1920 of undetermined cause.  I have not been able to establish the parents of David.  If he is truly a full blooded Indian, then records of his ancestors may not exist.

1910 Census shows David and Mary Spaulding and children Ada, Eliza and Violet
