Notes:

. Abraham Doan , born 9 Nov. 1802, in Bucks County, Pa., died 20 Dec. 1892 in Queensville; married 12 July 1827 Elizabeth Reid daughter of William & Mary Willson Reid , born 11 Jan. 1808 in New York city, died 9 Sept. 1893.
Ref: Swarthmore Certificate of Removal.

. Family legend has it that in the family migration from Pennsylvania in 1808, Abraham’s “job was to drive the cow on the journey. Before leaving Pennsylvania, Ebenezer cut a stick for him, I think about 4 or 6 feet long, - a young poplar that was growing there. This was to help keep the cow going. When they finally turned in off Yonge Street to the farm where they were going, he stuck the gad into the ground, where it took root & grew. When they moved from the old farm to the one near Queensville, they brought along a switch from that tree & planted it. There are poplar trees still growing at the gate.

. Elizabeth was a member of the choir which would sing the “Songs for the Altar” composed by David Willson in the Temple. Abraham did not take an active part in the 1837 Rebellion, but he did lobby for the release of the prisoners, & he also took sleigh loads of supplies to them while they were in jail. They farmed 40 acres of a 65 acre farm on Conc. 3, lots 13 & 14 with an assessed value of $1,300 in 1865.

Abraham took a leading role in the Children of Peace, first serving on the standing committee to “advise those that attend idle places of diversion”& later becoming Clerk of the Monthly Meeting for a time. He served as township assessor for a number of years, as did his son William, as well as being elected to the Township Council in 1848. A lifelong farmer, he suffered a stroke in 1880, & had to give up much of the farm work. By 1881, they had become Presbyterians. They are both buried in the Queensville Cemetery.
