David Purviance
David Purviance, November 14, 1766 – August 19, 1847, was a member of the Kentucky legislature, a member of the Ohio legislature, and an important early leader in the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement. He was also an early trustee (1819-1836) of Miami University in Oxford, Ohio and often served as its president ''pro tempore''.
==Role in the Restoration Movement==
The religious fervor of the early 19th century U.S. western frontier found its strongest voice at Cane Ridge Meeting House in Bourbon County, Kentucky, site of a series of continual camp meetings from 1801-1804. In Kentucky, David Purviance, at first a farmer, engaged in significant debates with John C. Breckinridge over the proper relationship between church and state. After separating from the Presbyterian church and persuading numerous Presbyterians and Baptists to join the Christian Church movement, David Purviance moved in about 1807 from Bourbon County near Paris to "New Paris" in Preble County, Ohio, for two principal reasons: to help spread the new Christian Church movement from its Kentucky base; and because he was an abolitionist in a time when slavery sentiment predominated in Kentucky.
David Purviance was a signatory as witness to the ''Last Will and Testament of the Springfield Presbytery'' formally dissolving the presbytery, which had previously withdrawn from the Presbyterian Synod of Kentucky. The ''Last Will and Testament'' marked the birth of the Christian Church of the West and became a founding document of the Restoration Movement.
