Notities bij Josue Pilon
History says that a little baby that was drowning in the river Po was saved. As a memory from this miracle a Maria statue with child was erected and the Church build on this place was called 'di Pilone' from the pilar (Pilon) build for the church .
Do you know where the Pilon name is first found and problaby spread from all over the world ?
The Valley of Piemonte, known as the possible origine of the "Pilon Tribe"as the "Waldenzer"; mountain people in the Italian Alps succesfully resisted the catholic Inquisition, from the 12 century until the 16 'çentury.
Near "Les Diablerets" a ski ressort , is the so called Col du Pillon (1546 m.), a mountain pass in the Western Swiss Alps, probably so called as the Waldenzian Pilons escaped to Switzerland out of Italy fleeing for the Enemy.
At last on February 17'1848 the Waldenzer got their civical and political freedom. Although the fascists tryed to control the protestants during the second world war, from 1946 there was freedom of Religion after all.
Since all dokumentation before 1800 was destroyed in this area, no information can be found to the migration on the 'Abraham Pilon' that arrived in the Netherlands in the early 17' Century. The archivist, Gabriella Ballesio, from theArchivo Tavola Valdese (Mail : (XXXXX@XXXX.XXX)) told me that the name Pilon is still familiar 'in theWaldensianValleys' from the Piemonte.
