Having born into Jacques d'Arc and Isabelle Romée, a peasant family, at Domrémy in northeast France. Joan claimed to be receipent of visions of the archangel Michael, Saint Margaret, and Saint Catherine of Alexandria, who all directed her to give support to Charles VII and help recover France from English domination late in the Hundred Years' War.
