Rien ne destinait Jeanne-Francoise de Biaudos de Casteja, jeune fille de la noblesse de province, a passer un demi-siecle dans l'intimite de la famille royale. Elle fut remarquee a Saint-Cyr par Mme de Maintenon, qui en fit sa secretaire, la maria a un protestant converti, et lui obtint une premiere place a la cour. Connue des lors sous le nom de Madame de La Lande, elle fut nommee par Louis XIV sous gouvernante des Enfants de France en 1704, place que Louis XV reconduisit en 1722. Elle est morte au chateau de Versailles en 1761.
