I know so little, but here is what I have:
George David was born on May 4, 1890 in Newton-Nottage, Porthcawl, Glamorganshire, Wales. He married Mary Rees on December 24, 1910. George worked in the coal mines as a Collier for a number of years. They had some family who lived in the United states and they decided to immigrate. George and Mary sailed from Liverpool England leaving March 2, 1912 on the Mauretania and they arrived at the port of New York in New York on March 9, 1912 and planned their final destination of Washington State. Based on a draft registration card, they lived for a while in Turtle Creek, Pa where George worked as a Millwright (machinist), but they did settle in Seattle as both of their children were born there. Cyril George David, born on June 11, 1913 and Marguerite Anne born on February 19, 1915 in Palmer, Washington. It took a number of years for them to naturalize: George on May 4, 1924 and Mary on May 9, 1928. Their son, Cyril, married Nina Winona "Winnie" South and they had one son, Daryl. Marguerite Anne (whom they sometimes called "Annie") married Cecil Matthew Wing, son of Manley Edson Wing and Lillie Ella Whitehouse, June 26, 1936. Marguerite and Cecil lived in Washington their whole lives. Cecil worked for a time with Sears Roebuck & Co. but also worked as a salmon fisherman. They had one son, Thomas David Wing, born on July 3, 1943.
