==Early life==
David E. Ross was the second child of George Ross and Susanna Booth.〔 He was born in Lafayette, Indiana, but moved to Brookston at the age of two.〔 In 1876, Ross began attending primary school.〔 During this time in his life, Ross began to show an interest in engineering. While on a steamboat ride with his parents, Ross made his way to the engine room and became fascinated with the machinery. Another incident occurred at his Uncle Linn’s house when Ross attempted to manipulate the furnace.〔 During his senior year of high school, Ross decided to attend college and learn about engineering.〔 Despite his father’s disapproval, Ross enrolled in Purdue University in 1889.〔Cooperider, Jay. "David Ross Ingenious and generous, he enriched the University in countless ways." Tippecanoe County, Indiana. N.p.. Web. 31 Oct 2013. .〕 This decision was made possible thanks to his uncle Will, who offered to house Ross during his time in college and pay for books and tuition.〔
