Easiest way is to create an agent that will find all your notes (eg
use OutlineOrder>0 as the AgentQuery) then sort by Created. The
aliases will be listed in their original sequence.

Alternatively create a new attribute of type "number" and check the
"sequential" box - all notes will be numbered sequentially in the
order of creation.
