In 1858 a baby girl was born in Selbu, Norway. Named Belle by her loving parents, this infant would become the
infamous mass murderer known as "the lady bluebeard".
It is believed that she immigrated to the U.S. sometime in 1886. 7 years later she married for the first time. Her
husband was Mads Sorenson. The couple owned and operated a store in Chicago. The only
profit earned from this business venture came in the form of an insurance payment after the store burned. Her
husband died in 1900 and Belle collected almost $8,000.00 in life insurance.
The earliest record of Belle living in La Porte, Indiana was in 1902. It was there on April 1, 1902 that she married for the 2nd
time. Her new husband was named Peter Gunness. They settled down to working their farm on McClung Road and Belle gave birth to 2 girls and 1 boy. Peter died of injuries sustained when a coffee grinder apparently fell off a shelf, hitting him on the head. It is reported that the insurance company paid his widow the value of his life insurance policy with great reluctance.
After the death of her husband Belle took in her 18 year old niece, Jenny Olson. Belle also began advertising in a large number of Norwegian newspapers for a new
husband/helpmate. The ad copy read "Widow, with mortgaged farm,
seeks marriage. Triflers need not apply."
Apparently her add was a big success. Young Jenny was introduced to several male "relatives" of Belle during her stay
on the Gunness farm. Her suspicions were aroused when these gentlemen would be there when she went to bed at night but, mysteriously gone when she rose in the morning. She did not believe her Aunts story of the family member suddenly deciding to leave in the middle of the night. Not too long after Jenny voiced her suspicions Belle was telling people that Jenny had gone to California to attend school there.
One of the men who answered Belle's ad was Andrew Helgelein. In response to his letter Belle instructed him to sell
his belongings and come to La Porte with the cash so they could run the farm together. She also included a 4 leaf clover in the letter to bring Andrew luck during his journey to her. Andrew arrived in 1908 with $3,000.00 in cash. He was not seen or heard from until his brother, Asa, arrived in La Porte and insisted that something was wrong and urged the Sheriff to investigate Andrew's disappearance. Unfortunately, Asa arrived several days too late.
The Gunness farm had burned down on April 28, 1908. The bodies of her 3 children along with the body of a headless woman were found in the remains of the house.
First assumption was that Belle had perished along with her children that day. Upon examination of the woman's body, it was determined that it could not be that of Belle. The body was too small to be Belle. Her hired hand, Ray Lamphere, claimed that he had taken Belle to the train station where she boarded a train to Chicago before returning to the farm and setting fire to the house. He claimed that Belle had ordered him to burn the house down after she was safely away.
He denied any part in the murders but, was convicted for the arson.
When investigators began searching the Gunness property the bodies of 12 people were found along with several body parts that could not be matched to any of the bodies found.
The body of Andrew Helgelein was found buried in the garden. Belle's niece Jenny was found close by.
Some investigators have hypothesized that Belle could have killed up to 40 people but, only 12 are known for certain.
Over the years reports of "Belle sightings" turned up all along the west coast. No one knows where she ended up or if she continued murdering men for their money after she left La Porte.

Located on Parkville Rd., off of Dersch Rd, about 8 miles from Anderson, CA
Watch for snakes in summer.One of the oldest cemetery's in Shasta County Many important early Shasta County pioneers are buried at Parkville Cemetery. The Thatchers (lumber barons), the Darrahs (Darrah Springs Fish Hatchery is named for them) and the Derschs (who owned a nearby stopping place beside Nobles Trail) are just a few families. Three of the women buried there - Climena Grace Harrington Klotz, Marie Dersch and Rosena Giles - have interesting histories.

• Climena Grace Harrington Klotz.

Climena Klotz was the first person buried at Parkville Cemetery. She died in 1864 at age 16 from complications following the birth of her daughter. Her baby survived, later married and gave birth to 10 children.

Klotz's family traveled in a wagon train from Council Bluffs, Iowa, in 1857 and settled on nearby Bear Creek. Klotz was 9 years old at the time. In 1862, she married John Klotz when she was only 14.

Klotz's father, Nero Harrington, and her brother-in-law, Ezekial Thatcher, each donated land to create a cemetery for her burial place, establishing Parkville Cemetery.

• Marie Dersch, also known as Annie Maria Kemmelmier.

Marie Dersch was famous because she was killed by American Indians in 1866. Her death resulted in the retaliatory organization of volunteer militia companies from neighbors and nearby communities who began hunting and killing innocent Indians at the Jelly's Ferry, Cottonwood and Millville Indian rancherias.

Dersch was the wife of George Dersch. They arrived in Whiskeytown in 1853. In 1860, George purchased Baker's Place, a well-known stopping place and stage station located beside Nobles Trail and Bear Creek. After his purchase, the place became known as the Dersch Place and/or Dersch Station. Together they operated the popular stopping place and farmed the adjoining 160 acres.

The reason for Marie Dersch's death has never been proven. One version states she was murdered in retaliation for a beating of an Indian years before over a potato-stealing incident.

Marie Dersch's name appears on more than one gravestone in the family plot; it's listed three different ways and is misspelled on one. Her birth name was correctly spelled on one gravestone as Annie Maria Kemmelmier; another gravestone lists her as Anna Marie Kemmelmier.

• Rosena Giles.

Rosena Giles was born in 1875 and died in 1967. Her claim to fame was her writing. She was a Shasta County historian and author and one of the first to document the history of Shasta County.

Giles lived most of her life on the family ranch beside Battle Creek, on what is now Coleman Fish Hatchery Road. She never married.

She was the daughter of a gold seeker who came to California in 1850 and Shasta County in 1879. Her father built their home in the late 1880s beside Battle Creek, where it is still occupied.

One of Giles' best works was published in 1949 and is titled "Shasta County, California, A History." It is a much sought-after rare local history book.
