- Moses is listed in "The Doane Family", Vol. 1, pg. 237. He lived in Humberstone, Ontario where he had a farm. Mary C. Doan-Goodchild of Ahmerstberg, Ontario, claims in a letter that, "....My great grandfather Moses Doan, was a Canadian
soldier in the war of 1812 - got shot in the chin, carried the scar to his grave". At a Doan reunion at the farm of Charles W. Doan, Bay City, Michigan, July 20, 1933, the following poem was credited to Moses by Ada Cordella Stuart Carmen. "
Thou mighty God, who reigns above, Great God of Mercy and of Love, My mind, my soul is sore oppressed, With heart felt sorrow in my breast. What shall I do? Where shall I go to find relief? I do not know. I labor from day to day. Sometimes I
read, sometimes I pray, To the most gracious God above, That He, my troubles may remove. But the deep sorrows in my heart, Lo, like the ocean cannot rest. He that can calm the raging sea, If I have faith can comfort me, Said to the tempest,
`Peace, be still!', And was obedient to His will. Oh, Thou my Saviour and my friend, On Thy mercy I depend. For Thou cans't comfort grant to me. All things are possible with Thee. All things we need while here below, Tis in Thy power to
bestow. Awake, Asleep, at home, abroad, I am surronded with my God. The only comfort I did see, It was Thy will to take away. It was my dear and loving wife, The only comfort of my life. With Angels may she now be blessed, Where I hope shall
ever rest. And when my time on earth is done, And I leave all beneath the sun, May we meet in that happy place, And see each other face to face. And when we meet on that blessed shore, No length of time will part us more. Our sorrows cease, our
troubles o'er, Where we will rest forever more. Farewell my friends and children dear. For I may never meet you here!"
