Berea lists his date of burial as 19 July 1863, his age at death as 26 (“List of burials and names”). David Pardee (Pardy) was enumerated in the 1860 federal US census in Middleburg, with his family. He was 23 years old, a farmer with $400 real estate and $100 in personal estate, born in Ohio. Wife Philena was 23 years old, born in Canada. Daughter Rosabell was 3 years old, born in Ohio. Son Charles was one year old, born in Ohio. On 15 Aug. 1862, he enlisted in the Union Army and was mustered into Co. B of the 103d Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He died 13 July 1862 at Danville, KY (Berea Enterprise, 4 June 1898). A transcription of a headstone was recorded in 1904 and 1934. David has two markers, military and family: "David Pardee Co B, 103rd O.Inf."(1904) "D.A. Pardee, Co B, 102nd Ohio Inf Marker" "David A. Pardee, died July 13, 1863, age 26 yrs, 2m, 5d" (1934). "David Pardee, Co. B., 103rd O.V.I. The roll was called, and a response was made by II. E. Foster who said that we only know of him that he fought for his country and died in the south and for this we decorate his grave with flowers."
