A mason in France, he arrived in 1634, and the rest of hisfamily followed him a year or so later.  He received large land grants,and became Sieur du Buisson and was responsible for bringing others toemigrate and settle on his land.

From Pierre Girouard:
       "`.....that would not necessarily be an error to declare that JeanGUYON was originally from Mortagne-au-Perche, even though he was born inTourouvre.  This settler of the first hour was established for quite sometime at Mortagne where most of his children were born.'  From: MEMOIRESVol 44 #3 p.211"

       "This is what Fr. Eloi Gerard TALBOT says about the origins of theGUYON-DION family (listed under DION):
Jean Guyon dit Dion, baptised at Tourouvre (Orne) 18 Sep 1592, was theson of Jacques GUYON.  He married Mathurine Robin 2 June 1615 at St. Jeanof Mortagne (Orne), France.  He was buried at Quebec 2 May 1663 and hisspouse, in the same place on 17 April 1662. For other information consult`Origine des Familles canadiennes-francais'; Pere Archange Godbout."
