Notes
- ↑ According to W. Scott Poole, Nurmi was in fact born in Gloucester, Massachusetts despite her claims of being born in Petsamo, Finland. Poole states the claim was made in order to "strengthen" her purported relation to Finnish Olympian runner Paavo Nurmi, a claim he also says is false (see Poole 2014, pp. 32–33).
