Count Amédée Visart de Bocarmé was the President of the Société Central Forestrière de Belgique from 1893 to 1913.

Lassaux is probably not the same person as the Ardennes artist Jean-Marie Phileas Lassaux (BDM III, 306).

Lecroart’s L’Hygiène was an issue of the Société Hollando-Belge des Amis de la Médaille.
