David Norman was born between 1740 and 1750, and his place of birth is unknown.

George Norman, David ‘s father, was probably born around 1720. In 1792, when George Norman was granted the 250 acres in the now Union County, South Carolina, the acreage was based on 100 for the head of the household, and 50 acres for a wife and each child, which indicates that the two oldest children of George Norman were Jonathan and David Norman (Revolutionary War Soldiers)

David married Martha (nee Story), and they lived in Union County, South Carolina.

He and Martha were members of the Padgett’s Creek Baptist Church, where they are both buried. Their markers read “D. N. Died Feb. 22, 1816,” and “M. N. Died May 17, l835.” David was on the building committee to construct a new Church building in 1809. David Norman died intestate and his wife, Martha, and son Jesse Norman, were appointed administrators of his estate. David and Martha had 11 children, though their birth order is unknown: John, Elizabeth Norman Martin, Martha Norman Cooper, Margaret Norman Huston, Jonathan, David (first name probably James), Thomas, William, Jesse, George and Dicey Norman.

During the years 1817, 1818 and 1819, each legatee received $455.34 as their individual parts in the estate of their father, David Norman.
