Antoine's Grandparents

The following is a letter I received from the "Cercle de Genealogie du Calvados" (Genealogical Society of Calvados) in France in response to my search for Pilon ancestors.  The letter identifies the grandparents of Antoine Pilon, thus apparently adding another previously unknown generation of Pilons.


Fur Trading Pilons of the American West
"From 1731 to 1750's, Pascal, Jacques-Amable, Andre, Thomas, Augustin & Antoine Pilon left records of there employment as voyageurs in the Upper Mississippi, many working for Louis d'Ailleboust de Coulon in the early 1740's and the Marin's in the early 1750's (who were trading with the Fox & Dakota at that time). Identifying these individuals is difficult but most assuredly members of the family groups below, who were associated with the family names of Daoust, Lalonde, Brunet & Sabourin, all common names found in the employment records of the fur trade during this period."
