Rapaire: "As I remember what I read, a woman claiming to be the Maid showed up some years later; she met with the king and several of the nobles who fought with Joan. She was granted an annuity by the king, and either was or eventually married. She was also recognized by her family." Sounds suspiciously close to the Holy Blood and Holy Grail / da Vinci Code stories, tranferred to Joan. Does it have the same level of substantiation (i.e. none)?
