213. Ruhamah Doane

descended from John Doane, Plymouth, Mass. 1630

an Englishwoman who had immigrated to Boston?

According to my findings
Ruhamah Doane was a descendant of Deacon John Doane, who came to
Plymouth, Mass. in 1630. Deacon John Doane was a member of the Leyden
Company; he belonged to Mr.Robinson's church, and was a staunch
Presbyterian. The name Ruhamah appears among the list of his
descendants for several generations. Mr. Luther Cromartie stated that
Ruhamah Doane lived on Black River. Her family came from Middletown.
Conn., and settled on Black River. We find that there is a record of
Hezekiah Doane in a list of men who attended upon the alarm at
Wilmington. September 4, 1748, belonging to Capt. John Sampson's
Company. James Cromartie enters land December 7, 1802 on the south
side of Black River near lands of Ephraim and Hezekiah Doane. Hezekiah
Doane recorded land grants in 1753, 1754, 1758. Jeremiah Doane
recorded land grant in 1765. A genealogist from Middletown, Conn.
writes: "The birth of Ruhamah Doane does not appear on the town
records nor is there any record here of her baptism.
The records of the First Congregational Church of Middletown show
that one Ephraim Doane and his wife Mary were admitted to membership
January 6, 1739/40 by letter from the church in Provincetown, Mass.;
but the records do not show that they had any children baptized here."
Another Middletown correspondent says: "There was a Doane who went
South and was never heard from again." In the New Hanover County
records there is mention of the sale of a slave, owned by Hezekiah
Doane, Sr., of New Hanover, sold to William Cromartie, of Bladen
county in the year 1770. The Doane family owned tracts of land in that
part of New Hanover county now known as Sampson and Pender counties.
It is said that they were members of old Black River Chapel.
