trans lation of the french jeanne d arc although the french heroine was known as jeannette in the coun tryside around domremy on the meuse where she was born in 1412 she is referred to in contemporary documents as jeanne she was called jeanne d arc by the french and english- because they were under the impression that ho derived hersurnamefremevulac named arc in the vicinity of hex birthplace the only village or town in france called arc is many miles south of doremy and evidence produced by several antiquaries in dicates that the name of jeannes father was jacquen dare and not jacques d arc as generally supposed therefore it is probable that the heroine s original name was jeanne or jeannette dare or in english joan dare inthe french army she was first called simply la pucelle the maid and after she raised the siege of orleans she was known as la pu celle d orleans the maid ol orleans
