Genlias: Netherlands Civil Register
The civil registration of births, deaths and marriages commenced in 1811 in the Netherlands. Thanks to Genlias - a joint initiative of a number of public archives in the Netherlands and overseas - it is possible to search many of the records online in a free national database on the Genlias websitehttp://www.genlias.nl/en/page0.jsp
The database is still a work in progress but already contains an impressive 15 million of the civil registration records currently in the public domain (births to 1903; marriages to 1933; and deaths to 1953).
In some instances parish records predating 1811 and statements of succession have been included.
Other countries that had or still have a constitutional relationship with the Netherlands, such as Formosa, have been invited to contribute their records too.
The surname is the only required element in the search form and it can be combined with a variety of other elements such as given name, place, patronymic, period, etc. to provide fast efficient searching of the records.
The website includes a link to www.archiefnet.nl where contact details of provincial and municipal archives in the Netherlands can be found.
