In 1842 Elisha Doty was a second time married, Catharine Jones becoming his wife. They had seven children who reached adult age, and those now living are:
1. Salina, of Charles City, Iowa

There were also two children who died in early life.

The mother passed away at Charles City, Iowa, September 12, 1902.

Although the family experienced many of the privations of pioneer life, Elisha Doty prospered in his business affairs as the years went on. He was one of the builders of the first stone windmill at Polo and as time passed on became an active factor in milling and merchandising and in the grain and stock business.

When the panic of 1857 came on, he threw his possessions into the breach and prevented much financial disaster to his neighbors.

In 1866 he removed to Tama County, Iowa, where his death occurred December 16, 1893, his last days being spent in Montour.
