Info from DFA book:

Son of Hope Rich and Elisha Doane(5), Elisha(4), Hezekiah(3), Ephraim(2), Deacon John Doane(1).

Married to Hannah Bartlett on 09 Apr 1775, by Rev. Chandler Robbins. Mr. Doane received private instruction under the Rev. Mr. Shute and graduated at Harvard College in 1774.

On 10 Apr 1776, he, with a boat's crew, captured off Cohasset, MA, the British ship Industry, with her valuable cargo, which was recorded as a very gallant act. After the close of the Revolutionary War, he moved to Boston and purchased, in 1783, for 2400 pounds the Faneuil-Phillips house where he lived several years. On account of the death of a favorite child on the grounds of the mansion, he changed his residence in Boston, retaining the family home in Wellfleet and purchasing a country house in Medford, MA. In 1787, he was one of the gentlemen volunteers in the Shay Rebellion.

Inheriting a large fortune, he lived elegantly in accordance with it; entertained lavishly and was prominent in society and all social matters. He was very benevolent, his property and personal services were never denied to those who needed them, and his sympathies were without calculation. As president of the Board of Health of Boston from 1798 to 1805, his benevolence had a large scope, and it is recorded that he "was greatly respected and beloved."

In 1798, yellow fever appeared in Boston, and Mr. Doane in fulfilling his duties on the Board of Health, contracted the disease, from the effects of which he never fully recovered. Travel and sea voyages, later, failed to restore his strength, and finally returning to his Boston home he died as above noted. Isaiah Doane inherited a large property near what is now Kilby Street, in Boston. Doane Street, leading out of Kilby Street, was undoubtedly named for him in 1896, though John Doane, Esq., owned and occupied nearly all the land in that vicinity as early as 1740.
