David Whitton (August 4, 1836 - May 13, 1917)〔'Journal of Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of the State of New York, 1918, Max Schmetterling, New York City: 1918, Death Of David Whitton, pg. 33〕 was an American produce dealer and lawyer from Brandon, Wisconsin who spent a single term as a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from Fond du Lac County.〔("Members of the Wisconsin Legislature 1848–1999 State of Wisconsin Legislative Bureau. Information Bulletin 99-1, September 1999. p. 122 )〕 He was elected as a member of the short-lived Wisconsin Reform Party. == Background == Whitton was born August 4, 1836 in Dundee, Scotland, and emigrated to the United States in 1842 with his father (a stonecutter and mason), mother and brother Charles. The family moved to Wisconsin in 1846 and settled in Ashippun, where he received a common school education. In 1856 they moved to Waupun, where David apprenticed as a carpenter and joiner, but found the trade did not suit him, and in 1860 became a produce dealer. He served while in Waupun as a supervisor and an assessor. In 1866 or 1867 he moved to Brandon, in which place he would repeatedly be elected justice of the peace. He was described as "from boyhood... an active Democrat".
