Jean Doiron may have come to the colony on L'Oranger. In c1671, either in France or at Port-Royal, he married Marie-Anne Canol. They do not appear in the 1678 census. In 1686, de Meulles called him a Douaron and said Jean was age 37 and Marianne 35. They lived at Port-Royal with seven children, six sons and a daughter. De Meulles did not give the size of their farm, but he noted that they owned 1 gun, 7 cattle, and 1 sheep. Marie-Anne gave Jean four more children, including two more sons. In the early 1690s, Jean remarried to Marie, daughter of Guillaume Trahan and Madeleine Brun, and she gave him eight more children, four sons and two daughters--so he fathered 19 children in all, including 11 sons who created families of their own!
