Dauthe was born in Leipzig and educated by Adam Friedrich Oeser. In his hometown, where he had been the city's construction official most of his buildings have been built, such as the first concert chamber of the Gewandhaus in 1781 and the interior of the St. Nicholas' Church (1794). Dauthe became member of the Lodge Minerva zu den drei Palmen Leipzig in 1778 and died at the age of 70 in the small silesian city of Bad Flinsberg.
