David Fairchild (California politician)
David Fairchild (August 1, 1791 - September 17, 1866) created many newspapers in central and western New York State before heading to California in the Gold Rush. He was an early settler of the Golden State and was elected a member of the California State legislature in 1860 as a Democrat.〔(Join California - David Fairchild )〕

From the age of 16 he was employed as a printer with a short break in time when he served his country in the War of 1812.〔Daily Alta California, Volume 15, Number 5031, 7 December 1863〕 He was stationed at Sackett's Harbor on Lake Ontario to oppose the landing of any British troops. He passed the printing trade on to his sons. He is known to have established a dozen or so newspapers. Among those he started were ''The Ovid Bee'',〔Ovid Bee, February 24, 1838〕 ''Trumansburg Advertiser'',〔Landmarks of Tompkins County, New York, Chapter VIII, by John H. Selkreg, 1894; D. Mason & Co.,〕 ''Cortland Advocate'', ''Dansville Republican'',〔The Ovid Bee - Wednesday, March 18, 1846〕 ''Trumansburg Gazette'', ''Wayne County Democrat'',〔Ovid Bee, July 26, 1848〕 ''Chemung Democrat'',〔Ovid Bee - March 31, 1847〕 and the ''Newark Herald''.〔Ovid Bee - August 25, 1847〕 Fairchild would set up a print shop in a community, run the paper for a year or so, sell the paper and press and then move on. His oldest son, Corydon Fairchild ran ''The Ovid Bee'' for over thirty years after his father left.
