This is the historical account of the Virginian rebel agent who carried messages to Confederates about movements of the Union Army. Maria Isabella "Belle" Boyd was born in May 1844 in West Virginia to a wealthy family. During the Civil War, her father was a soldier in the Stonewall Brigade, and at least three other members of her family were convicted of being Confederate spies. In 1861, when Federal troops occupied Martinsburg, Belle shot and killed a drunken Union soldier who was harrassing her and her mother. Soon after, at age 17, she became a "Rebel Spy."
