Notes - Cyprien, born in April 1730, followed several of his older brothers to Minas and was still unmarried when the British deported him to Virginia in the fall of 1755, and Virginia officials sent them on to England in the spring of 1756. Cyprien married Marguerite, daughter of René Landry and Marie-Rose Rivet, at Liverpool, England, in January 1758.
Cyprien, nephew Honoré le jeune, and the other Duons remained in the mother country, but they did not remain at Morlaix. In late 1765, they followed other Acadians repatriated from England to Belle-Île-en-Mer off the southern coast of Brittany, where they helped create an agricultural settlement on the recently-liberated island. Cyprien and wife Marguerite Landry had at least three more children at Bangor in the southern interior of the island: Joseph called Joseph dit Grois, in April 1766; Jean-Pierre in March 1769; Marie-Élisabeth in June 1771.
In the early 1780s, the Spanish government offered the Acadians in France the chance for a new life in faraway Louisiana. Honoré le jeune and his wife, sisters Élisabeth and Marguerite and their husbands, and Cyprien's sons Jean-Baptiste and Joseph dit Gros, now grown, agreed to take it. Honoré le jeune's daughter Marie, and brother Cyprien and the rest of his family remained in France. Cyprien died at Calestrene near Bangor in c1798, in his late 60s.
