And the Douay–Rheims Bible came out in 1610, about the time of the formation of the Jesuit order, and when the Catholic Church started pushing the global model. How long they (Rome) been claiming we live on a ball, I do not know, but we can at least trace it to the Douay–Rheims, as you pointed out.
We can have a look at what the Bibles preceding the KJV said:
Isaiah 40 Wycliffe Bible (1394)
Isaiah 40 Tyndale Bible (1531)
Isaiah 40 Coverdale Bible (1535)
Isaiah 40 Matthew Bible (1537)
Isaiah 40 Geneva Bible (1560)
Isaiah 40 Bishops' Bible (1568)
It is he that sitteth vpon the circle of the world, whose inhabiters are [in comparison of him] but as grashoppers: he spreadeth out the heauens as a couering, he stretcheth them out as a tent to dwell in.
They all been translating this as circle. The correct word to use, is circle. Only the Jesuit trained Priest are claiming otherwise.
