He was one of many children yet the only who remained in NC when the rest of the family moved west to TN. [2]

Research Notes
Various family Cemeteries in North Carolina have been recently imade public and indexed online including the Braun Family Cemetery where David was buried. His gravestone has stood the test of time but no one has been able to read it for decades and the cards have put dates to the approximations we had before. He was born December 1, 1766 (before we just had 1766) and he died June 6, 1834 (we all had June 6, 1841 prior). [6]
