He was the son of Daniel S. and Lucinda Deardurff and was born near Morocco, Indiana where he grew to manhood and lived until 1899 when he came to Brook, Indiana where he resided, with the exception of three years on a ranch in the northern part of the county, until his death.
On December 14, 1879 he was united in marriage to Mary Jane Cole, and to this union three children were born, Cora E., of Brook, Harley E., of Marshfield, Missouri and Edwin G., deceased.
His wife, son, daughter, one brother, Samuel of Morocco, and one sister, Mrs. S. A. Bramble of St. Louis, survive him.
Mr. Deardurff was noted for his untiring industry and energy, and was for many years associated in an official capacity with the civic affairs of the town of Brook, and discharged his various tasks with ability and a strict sense of his duties.
His outstanding characteristics were his devotion to his family and loyalty to his friends, and no task was too hard, no obligation too arduous for him to perform in their behalf. These, with his high sense of public duty, brought for him the kindly aid and sympathy of many friends, and the loving care of wife and daughter during a lingering illness of several years.
