message: The article currently says that the word "Isle" might have been misspelled:
On July 4, 1845, a historic picnic party was held on the island to change the name to “Belle Isle” in honor of Miss Isabelle Cass, the daughter of then Governor (General) Lewis Cass. Belle Isle literally means "beautiful island" in French. It is misspelled, however, and should be Belle Île.
While this statement might be accurate I wonder if this spelling does not - on the contrary - correspond to the correct (or at least the most widespread) spelling of the French word for "island" at that time.
Indeed, in old French, the word "île" was written "isle".(https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/isle)
In addition, the island of Belle-Île located in Brittany can alternately be written Belle Isle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_%C3%8Ele)
