David Wallace (September 12, 1799 – September 4, 1859) was a Whig governor of the U.S. state of Indiana.

He was born in Lewistown, Pennsylvania, raised and educated in Ohio, and later moved to Brookville, Indiana. He graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1821 and served as a lieutenant, captain, and colonel in the 7th Regiment, Indiana Militia.

Wallace was married to Esther French Test on November 10 1824 in Lewistown, Pennsylvania. They had four children together, one of whom was Lew Wallace, author of the novel Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ and Governor of the New Mexico Territory. After the death of his first wife, David married Zerelda Gray Sanders in 1836 and together they had six children.

In 1828, Wallace was elected to the Indiana House of Representatives, where he served until 1831, when he was elected lieutenant governor on the Whig ticket with Noah Noble. He and Noble were reelected in 1834 and served until 1837 when Wallace was elected as Indiana's sixth governor, having defeated John Dumont, also a Whig candidate.

Wallace's term as governor was marred by the Panic of 1837 and the years of economic uncertainty which followed. Indiana had been enjoying a period of internal improvements of roads and canals, but nearly all such projects ended during this financial crisis. The Treaty of Chicago--signed in 1833 with the Potawatomi--led to their forceable removal from their lands. Wallace ordered General and U.S. Senator John Tipton to remove a band of 859 Potawatomi from the vicinity of Plymouth, Indiana, and send them to the Kansas Territory. More than 40 Potawatomi died from disease and the stress of the two-month march in what became known as the "Trail of Death".

Following his term as governor, Wallace was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1841, but failed in his attempt for reelection in 1843. Following the defeat, Wallace returned to Indiana where he became chairman of the state's Whig party in 1846. He served as a member of the state's constitutional convention in 1850 and judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Marion County from 1856 until his death.

Wallace died on September 4, 1859 in Indianapolis, Indiana and is buried in Crown Hill Cemetery.

David Wallace (born 8 July 1976 in Limerick). He is a rugby union openside flanker, a member of the Irish international team and Munster Rugby province. He has also played blindside flank, number eight and wing for Munster. He was educated at Crescent College and Ardscoil Ris

He toured Australia with the 2001 British and Irish Lions following in the footsteps of his brothers Richard and Paul.

Three lengthy injury-enforced absences have hindered Wallace's international development. He only played in five games for Ireland until returning to start in the Triple Crown victory over Scotland — scoring a vital try in the process — and both Tests in 2004 against South Africa. He did not return again to the Irish side until the second Test against Japan in June 2005, where he scored his fourth international try.

His form for Munster saw him earn a recall to the Irish set-up in 2006. He was present during the 6 Nations and the summer tour in June. He is currently the favoured open-side flanker having played all five Six Nations games in 2006 and starting all five in 2007, scoring a try against England.

Wallace scored the fourth try in Munster’s win over Sale in the 2005/6 Heineken Cup to take the Irish province into a home quarter-final against Perpignan. Munster subsequently won the cup.
