Benjamin Hooper's (seacoast) Co. Stationed at Falmouth From: The Doane family: 1. Deacon John Doane, of Plymouth, 2. Doctor John Done, of Maryland, and their descendants. With notes upon English families of the same name 110 EDWARD 5 DOANE (Ebenezer, 4 Ebenezer, 3 Ephraim, 2 John 1 ) was born, probably, at Cape Elizabeth, Me., about 1741 and died there after 1817. He married first, Apr. 3(orOct. 21), 1762, Anna Westcott. Married second, at Cape Elizabeth, Nov. 21, 1766, Sarah McDougle, who died at Durham, Me., about 1817. Mr. Doane was a farmer and lived on Cape Elizabeth, in that section known as Long Creek and near the Long Creek bridge. On Sept. 10, 1810, he deeded his farm at Cape Elizabeth to his son Charles, for the care and support of himself and wife, during their declining years. In the summer of 1817 they visited their son, Richard, at Durham, where his wife, Sarah, died. She was buried there in the Trufant burial-ground, about one-half mile from their son's farm. After her death he again sought his old home at Cape Elizabeth, but lived only a few days after his return. Edward Doane was in Captain Skillings Co., against the Indians and was a soldier in the French and in the Revolutionary wars. He was a private in Capt. John Libbie's Co., Col. Jedediah Preble's Regt., from Apr. 8 to Nov. 18, probably, 1758; wages £1.1 6 8 per month. His name appears on a Billeting Roll, sworn to at Boston, Feb. 12, 1759 and rendered by Josiah Smith of Weston, for billeting men coming from service in 1758, Captain Libbie's Co.
