History

Belle Alliance is named after the Belle Alliance Plantation located on the east bank of Bayou Lafourche in Assumption Parish, about five miles (8 km) out of Donaldsonville. During the 1770s, this convert|7000|acre|km2|sing=on plot was granted to Don Juan Vives, a physician and military officer of the Spanish government. [ [http://www.rootsweb.com/~laassump/belle.html www.rootsweb.com "BELLE ALLIANCE PLANTATION"] ] The actual Belle Alliance Plantation was built by a successful sugar planter Charles Anton Kock, also owner of St. Emma Plantation around 1846.
