I hate to burst your bubble here, but I am quite familiar with FamilyTreeDNA's databases, and it seems that the R1b-U152 sample that you have been citing belongs to a person with the surname of "Sears" with 18th century Anglo-American ancestry.

This same sample does not match those tested who claim actual descent from Pierre Cyr of Acadia.

Furthermore, I do want to repeat that DNA testing cannot determine the birthplace of a 17th century immigrant, and for that matter R1b-U152 is found across France, including west-central France.
