Poulain DuBignon and the DuBignon Burying Ground

This burying ground contains the bodies of several members of the du Bignon family, descendants of Le Seiur Christophe du Poulain de la Houssaye du Bignon, native of Saint-Malo in Brittany. One of four Frenchmen, former residents of Sapelo Island, who purchased Jekyll Island in 1791, Poulain du Bignon became the sole owner a few years later.
