• Notes

  Belle was not sure of her full given name. Her mother died when she was young and her father just called her "Belle." In addition, the building in Carlstadt where her birth records were filed burned down when she was still a girl. Her first name may have been Isabelle, Isabella, Annabell, Arabella, Belinda, or another variation. Alternately, "Belle" may have been a part of her middle name. [1]
