David Wills (February 3, 1831 – October 27, 1894) was the principal figure in the establishment of the National Cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

During the Confederate occupation of the town, Wills saw "a group of rebels with an ax break open the store door" of one of his tenants.

He was appointed the agent of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania by Governor Curtin to organize the Soldiers' National Cemetery and looked after its interest.

However, rival lawyer David McConaughy had already started purchasing land on Cemetery Hill with the intention of preserving it for the Federal government instead of the commonwealth.

Notably, it was in Wills' house on November 18 that President Lincoln wrote the final draft of the Gettysburg Address.
