Welcome to the Dutch genealogy discussion group on Genealogy Wise

If you are new to this group, please leave a comment below introducing yourself and your Dutch ancestors. Feel free to leave a link to your genealogy website or to discuss your brick walls.

If you are new to Dutch genealogy I suggest you start by reading my article Trace your Dutch roots online, and then search Genlias, the database of Dutch birth, marriage and death records maintained by the Dutch archives.

Here are five resources to get you started:

If your ancestors are among the early Dutch settlers of New Netherland then you need these resources (more coming soon):

Hi, I am new to this and have been amazed to find so many of my father's ancestors are from Holland to New Amsterdam. The lines include Van den Boggart, VanKleeck, Damen, duTrieux, Schermerhorn, Hogeboom, VanVoorhoudt, vanBrestede, Demarest, Harris, Naks/Noxon, Buys/Beuijs and so on. My grandmother was born in Breda [met a Canadian soldier in London] and they lived in Breda for several years after the war so I am also looking for non emigrating Dutch names and dates to trace her line. Genlias has been of some help. Are there other sources out there? Thank you, Judi

I am Jan Zoll and I just started as a new member of the Dutch genealogy group. I'm Dutch and living in The Netherlands. I am searching for ancestors and descendants in Europe and the USA. Hopefully, I can learn a lot from the other members of this group.

once again Thankyou henk you have no idea how much I appreciate your help. I did find Adrian Cook it was Adriaus Kok and he was actualy not born in Friesland(the first one I have found)still trying to figure out his wife she was born in Friesland and came to the U.S.A as a small girl but until I find out her Maiden name shes a mystery!  I will try the Treasor using your advice...should be a challenge!

Keep in mind, though, that research before 1811 is far more complex than research after 1811. More variation in spellings, many people in Friesland did not have a surname, marriage records do not list the names of parents, etc.

Tresoar

Click the English flag (top right) to get an English interface, then click Genealogy (left column), then seach before 1811.
