| Notes for Belle HARNESS | ||||||
| Belle Harness died at the age of 23. According to Ernest Bracken in the La Porte County, Indiana Scrapbook, Abraham Lincoln used to visit Lexington, Illinois when circuit riding, and according to family tradition he came riding into town one day by Ike Harness' house and saw little Belle sitting on the family fence waving a flag. Abe thought she looked so cute he rode up to the fence and kissed her. | ||||||
