==Early life==
Endean was born in 1883 in Auckland. He was the son of John Endean, who made his money in gold mining in Australia, California and New Zealand. His father was later the proprietor of the Waitemata Hotel on the corner of Queen and Customs Street.〔 His father built the Endeans Building on the corner of Queen and Quay Streets in Auckland in 1905, which was replaced after a fire in 1914–15; it is listed as a Category II heritage building. They lived in a large house in Symonds Street, which is listed as a Category I heritage building. His mother, Ellen Endean (née Phillips), was the first woman who stood for election to Auckland City Council in 1894, only one year after women received the vote in New Zealand.〔 Endean's middle name was thus his mother's maiden name.
Endean graduated from Auckland University College with LLB in May 1906 and was a lawyer until 1930, but interrupted by WWI, when he served with the Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve. He worked with Frederick Baume KC and upon Baume's death in 1910, he bought his law practice off his estate. Within months, he took J. A. Holloway as a partner, whom he knew from college, and the practice was known as Endean and Holloway from then on.
Endean married Doris Linwood Simms in 1920.
