Born, raised, and schooled
in Lincoln
Park, downriver from Detroit, Michigan, USA. After marriage
and raising my family of two sons and a daughter, I returned to
college,
graduating with honors and as president of my nursing class. A
rewarding
career followed with specialties in psychiatric nursing, traumatic
brain
injury and as chief research nurse for the Rehabilitation Institute of
Michigan. Now retired I thoroughly enjoy being Nanny to my
2yr old grandson born August 1999. I also have one
step-granddaughter.
My avid interest in family genealogy followed participation in the 1995
Pilon International gathering at Gatineau-Hull and a visit to the home
of our first Canadian ancestor, Antoine Pilon at Pointe Claire,
Qc.
This led to my founding the Pilon Association of America after
organizing
a meeting of over 100 American and French Canadian Pilons that met in
Wyandotte,
Michigan. |

Guy
Pilon
FRANCE

I was born in 1937 in the
city of Brest,
commercial and military sea port at the western tip of France, in
Bretagne.
This is where I spent my childhood. My training as an accountant
lead me to work in the financial services of TWA an American
Airline.
It is within the Commercial Department of this company that I
established
a career until my retirement in 1997. Married in 1963, I am the
father
of two children and proud grandfather of three boys. A collector
of stamps, coins, postal cards, unusual stones not necessarily precious
I am also passionately interested in History.
In 1994, my interest in
Genealogy was stimulated
upon meeting a group of Canadians which I assisted "l'Association des
Pilon d'Amerique" visiting Bayeux in Normandie, France, the
birthplace
of their Ancestors. That year I founded l'Association des
Pilon/Pillon de
France et d'Europe. This Association of which I am still the
president
provides contacts between Pilons, exchanges of genealogical data and
information
related the large Pilon family through our quarterly publication "Le
Pilier".
Contacts with the Association may be made in French or English.
