Jeanne De Valois-Saint-Rémy Life story


Jeanne de Valois-Saint-Rémy, soi-disant "Comtesse de la Motte" was a notorious French adventuress and thief; she was married to Nicholas de la Motte whose family's claim to nobility is dubious. She herself was an impoverished descendant of the Valois royal family through an illegitimate son of King Henry II.
