Carbonnet (De La Mothe), Jeanne De,

an Ursuline nun of the 17th century, at Bourg-en-Bresse (department of Ain), left memoirs of many pious women of her order, taken from the chronicles of the Ursulines and other sources (Bourg, 1684-90, 4 vols. 4to). This work contains the lives of seven hundred and fifty of these nuns, and thirty benefactors of the order, but is not considered trustworthy, because of its lack of critical exactness, dates, etc. See Landon, Eccles. Diet. s.v.; Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
