He likewise privately baptized the newborn children in the absence of the missionary. According to Placide Gaudet, Pierre went with his family to settle at Minudie. In 1751, the English intensified their presence with the construction of Fort Lawrence. Pierre moved with his family to au Lac near Fort Beausejour where we find him in the spring of 1755. after the capture of Fort Beausejour the following summer, he crossed over to ile Saint Jean to take refuge at Port Lajoie. Already around age 75 years old, we cannot say whether he died on the island and once again undertook the deportation of 1758 to the island of Saint Jean.(not sure of the trans of last sentence)

Notes:

There is a discrepancy in research info. as to whether this Jean married twice or his son, Jean, married twice. Bona Arsenault(vol.4, p.1374) indicates that the Jean from France married once to Marie Anne de Cano, but his son, Jean, married twice- once around 1698 to Marie Trahan, d/o Guillaume & Madeleine Brun of Port Royal and secondly around 1710 to Anne LeBlanc, d/o Andre & Marie Dugas. The Doiron book, the descendants of Pierre Doiron & Anne Forest, states that Jean from France married Marie Anne de Cano around 1669 AND Marie Trahan around 1692; and that son, Jean, married Anne LeBlanc in 1693(Jean having been born in 1678). Stephen White's article in Cahier 25 of La Societe Historique Acadienne(page 120) says that Jean Doiron from France married twice and gives the name of his first spouse as Marie Anne Canol, but says he had 19 children. Bona-vol.4,p.1374-b.dt, arrived in Acadia around 1671;lived in the parish of Sainte-Famille in Pisiguit;marr.info. M01-p.45-b&d dts,marr.info. J02-p.120-b.dt;marr.twice but only names one spouse.
