Notes
General:
In 1745, Hezekiah was a colonel in the service of the colonies against Cape Breton, and was present when the city of Louisburg, on that island, was surrendered to his Britannic majesty. Afterwards, while on a mackerel voyage near the Canada shore, he and his boat's crew were fired upon and taken by the Indians. After enduring great sufferings during a captivity of several months, they were bought by the French, set at liberty, and returned home.

From The Doane Family:
"Mr. Doane was a wealthy citizen of Wellfleet; a deacon of the church; a man of wide influence and occupied important positions within the gift of his townsmen. He was a Representative to the General Court three years; a selectman five years and town clerk four years. He was largely engaged in the whale fishery, and before the Revolutionary War owned sixteen sail of vessels. According to the History of Eastham, he belonged to a crew called the 'Seed Corn Gang of Whalers'; the others were his brother Col. Elisha Doane, Joseph Higgins and Capt. Winslow Lewis. These men generally were of the same crew, and were the most expert whalemen of the town.
"Hezekiah Doane's name appears in a list of men returned by Winslow Lewis, chairman of selectmen and committee of Wellfleet, Sept. 8, 1778, as drafted to serve in the Continental Army for the town of Wellfleet, and who paid fines in lieu of service; said Doane reported as the father of Paul Doane.
"He was buried in the Duck Creek burial-ground at Wellfleet, where a stone with this inscription marks his grave:
"'Sacred to the memory of
Hezekiah Doane, Esq.
who having served his generation
in many important public stations
with honor and fidelity
died March 28^th 1808
Æ 78.
By a constant practice of the social virtues
he rendered himself greatly beloved and
respected in the various walks
of domestic life
Reader
Would'st thou be honored in life and
lamented in death, go and do likewise'"

(Alfred Alder Doane, The Doane Family, Boston, 1902.)
---------------------------------------
Petition to the Massachusetts General Court, Sept 1775
The Petition of Elisha Cobb, of Wellfleet, in the County of Barnstable, most humbly sheweth. That a number of whaling vessels is now preparing for sea, owned and possessed by Elisha Doane, Esq., Ezekiel Holbrook, Hezekiah Doane, Eleazer Atwood, and Naaman Holbrook and Company: "Your petitioner, therefore, in behalf of theaforesaid gentlemen, most humbly prays this honourable Court to take into consideration the great necessity of the whale fishery at this day, and grant them liberty of proceeding on their voyage; they complying with the order of this honourable Court, which they are always ready to obey. Your petitioner would further represent, that, should this honourable Court neglect granting the desire aforesaid, a large number of the inhabitants of said County will be unemployed in any sort of business; and as a number of said vessels hath been preparing for the employ aforesaid, your petitioner humbly hopes the aforesaid petition will be granted. And, as in duty bound, shall ever pray.

Resolved, That the Petitioners abovementioned, and all others who have Vessels fitting out for the Whale Fishery, be, and they hereby are permitted to send their Vessels out on said Fishery, they taking on board no more Provisions than is necessary for said voyages, in the judgment of the Selectmen of the Towns from whence they sail, and giving bond to the Receiver-General of this Colony, in the sum of two thousand Pounds for each Vessel, that they will carry out no more Provisions than is hereby allowed; and that said Vessels, with their Cargoes, return to some Port in this Colony, and there land the same, the Ports of Boston and Nantucket excepted.

In Council, September 27, 1775: Read and concurred.

Notes
Marriage Notes (Samuel Savage M.D.)
Fred B. Rogers. Journal of History of Medicine and Allied Sciences 29:108-111. Jan 1974. "Dr. Samuel Savage (1748-1831): Medical Patriarch of Cape Cod"
..." Dr. Savage was married to Hope Doane (1756-1830), daughter of Col. Elisha and Hope Rich Doane of Wellfleet, Massachusetts, on 18 February 1777. Sorrow marred their family life. Three sons, William, Joseph and Tyler, died in infancy. Three other sons died in young manhood—John, a law student who graduated from Harvard College in 1810, expired at age 22 in the following year, and his brothers Elisha and Samuel died at Kingston, Jamaica, where they had gone in hopes of regaining impaired health.(10) The inscription upon Samuel's tombstone closed with a quotation from the English poet Edward Young (1683-1765):

Insatiate archer! Could not one suffice?
Thy shaft flew thrice, and
Thrice my peace was slain.

Another son, Charles, became a United States consul to the Republic of Central America, stationed at Guatemala City from 1825 to 1838. He married Susan Wood (1790-1825), daughter of Gen. Abraham Wood of Wiscasset, Maine. Dr. and Mrs. Savage's only daughter, Hope, became the second wife of the Hon. Lemuel Shaw (1781-1861) of Barnstable, who was Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Court from 1830 to 1860. Hope Shaw bore the jurist two sons, Lemuel and Samuel, and lived until 1879. Through her step-daughter, Elizabeth Shaw, she became the mother-in-law of novelist Herman Melville."
