The newly married couple settled at Nappan near Minudie. In 1754 Pierre and his father were found at Chimougui with their families. With the fall of Fort Beausejour in 1755, they took refuge at Port Lajoie on ile Saint Jean. After the Fortress of Louisbourg was taken in 1758, they moved to Shippagan or its vicinity. In 1761, they were captured by Roderick MacKenzie's men who were taking prisoners to fort Beausejour. After the treaty was signed in 1763, they were freed and returned to settle at Nappan. In the Nappan census of 1770, the family appeared to be prospering well... Twenty years later, Pierre's situation was not so good. In the 1791 census, he was in his eighties and a widower: "A list of persons who have been relieved from the capitation tax: Peter Doiron, a poor decreped old man very poor, one shilling".
