Jacques d'Arc, originally spelled Darc (1380–1440), was a farmer in the village of Domrémy in Lorraine, and the father of the French heroine and Roman Catholic saint Joan of Arc ("Jeanne d'Arc" in French).

Life

Born at Ceffonds, he held the post of doyen in Domrémy, which meant that he collected taxes and organized the village's defense. In 1405, he married Isabelle Romée (1377–1458), a native of the nearby village of Vouthon-Bas, and together they had five children: Jacquemin, Jean, Jeanne, Pierre, and Catherine.

The d'Arc home was the only stone home in Domrémy. The family owned their home and furniture, nearly 50 acres of land, and 200-300 francs in savings.

On 29 December 1429, King Charles VII of France ennobled the family of Jacques and Isabelle, with a symbolic denomination which was heritable. The Chamber of Accounts in France registered the family's designation to nobility on 20 January 1430. The grant permitted the family to change its surname to du Lys.

According to a firmly maintained family tradition, two months after the execution of his daughter Joan, Jacques fell ill of grief and died as a result. However, Joan died in 1431, whereas most sources place the death of Jacques d'Arc around 1440.
