>> Hi Marilyn,
>>
>> Thanks for offering to do look-ups! Would you please check both account
>> books for the surname BELLESFELT, which might also be spelled BELLISFELT,
>> BULLESFELT, BOELLESFELT, BILESFELT, (etc.). Later generations eventually
>> shortened the name to BELLES, BELLAS, BELLIS.
>>
>> Thanks again!
