Joyce Demits at Tanglewood Farms says Village Maid, the Gallica, has very double, two-inch flowers of pale pink, streaked dark rose...
Several references refer to apparently different roses. See also Rosa provincialis variegata
Verrier describes some confusion with a number of other roses, including 'Village Maid' [Rosa Gallica, p. 107]
Brent Dickerson reports that Thomas River's 1837 catalog lists a Gallica 'Village Maid' as already in England, a variety which thus pre-dates both Vibert's 'Village Maid' of 1845 and Vibert's 'Belle Villageoise' of 1839.

International Organization for Plant Information does not list the name Rosa centifolia variegata

Sangerhausen describes the color of the bloom of Panachée à fleurs double as pink with violet stripes.]
