    Notes:

    From The Doane Family: Alfred Alder Doane
    EBENEZER« DOANE (Ebenezer,» Ephraim,3 John») was born at Triiro, Mass., Aug. 22, 1706 and was baptized there by Rev. John Avery, Sept. 13, 1713. He married Elizabeth Skillings, who was born Apr. 25,1713, the daughter of Samuel3 and Aroda (Haley) Skillings (John,9 Thomas1) of Kittery, and Falmouth, Me. Mr. Doane went to Falmouth perhaps as early as the spring of 1739, when seven or eight families, among whom were the principal inhabitants, removed from Provincetown to Casco Bay. He was probably a seafaring man. They settled at Long Creek, Cape Elizabeth. After the death of her husband, of which we have no record, Mrs. Doane went to live with her daughter, Joanna Berry, at Buckfield, where she died very aged. But little can be learned of Ebenezer Doane. The probate records were burned in the Portland fire. I copy the history of this family from the Maine Genealogical Recorder. The births of their children are not recorded on the town or church records of Cape Elizabeth, but the following list is made up from reliable sources.

    Ebenezer married Skillings, Elizabeth on 25 Apr 1743. Elizabeth (daughter of Skillings, Samuel and Haley, Rhoda) was born on 25 Apr 1713 in Truro, Barnstable Co., MA or Falmouth, ME; died in Buckfield, Oxford Co., ME. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
