This should do what you want:
class Village {
...
@XmlElement( name = "maison", namespace = "French" )
public House getHouse(){
...
}
...
}
If Village is the top level element, the namespace is defined there, and the
"house" element's tag just shows the prefix:
<village xmlns:ns2="French">
<ns2:maison>
<name>...</name>
</ns2:maison>
</village>
