Belding Banner, 7 Mar 1907

David Wilson Belding, the oldest member of Belding Bros. & Co., passed away at 
his home in Cincinnati, Ohio, Monday at the age of 76 years.  The deceased has 
not been in good health for a number of years and recently unfavorable 
conditions intervened which carried him away.  He was born in Ashfield, Mass., 
and came to Michigan in 1861 and located in Ionia where he resided with his 
family for about five years moving from there to Cincinnati to take charge of 
the growing business of the company then in its infancy and made his residence 
there ever since, being one of that cities’ most honorable and respected 
citizens.

Mr. Belding often met his brothers and other officials of the company in this 
city at their business meetings, his last visit here being two years ago and he 
was a very congenial and pleasant gentleman to meet.

Only two of the brothers of the company which bear their honored name and which 
has grown to such world wide proportions in business and influence survive, 
Milo M. Belding of New York president of the company and Alva H. Belding of 
Rockville, Conn.

His wife and four children, two sons and two daughters, survive him.
