Some American Pilons |
 |
| A few years ago, Jean-Luc Pilon, the webmaster of the Pilon
International Web site was in Washington, D.C. and visited the Viet Nam
memorial, thereby coming to the realisation that there are Pilons in the
United States of America who are as much part of the New World Pilon family
as the Pilons living in Québec and elsewhere in Canada. This
initial discovery on his part led to the creation of a web page dedicated
to the memory of Alan Everett Pilon who had died in Viet Nam. This
in turn led to contacts with relatives of Alan E. Pilon, both through the
internet as well as through more traditional means, i.e. the mail and the
phone.
As a result, Jody Pilon Anderson, a first cousin of Alan E. Pilon, has put together her Pilon family tree with two goals in mind. First, she hopes to find someone who may be able to help connect her Pilon branch with the Pilons of Canada where she knows her ancestor hailed from. Secondly, she would like to encourage others who are remotely connected to this same branch, to share information and broaden the scope of what she posseses. As Jody put it: "Come on all you American Pilon Cousins, let's hook up!" |
