A little bit more about its origin here: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lacus_Flevo Zuider Zee]


The capital city of Flevoland is Lelystad, see: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lelystad Lelystad] <br>

__TOC__


== Getting started with Flevoland research  ==
==History==
After a flood in 1916, it was decided that the Zuiderzee, an inland sea within the Netherlands, would be enclosed and reclaimed. The Zuiderzee was subsequently called IJsselmeer, the lake at the end of the river IJssel.<br>
There was an important change in post-war projects from the earlier Noordoostpolder reclamation: a narrow body of water was preserved along the old coast to stabilise the water table and to prevent coastal towns from losing their access to the sea. Flevopolder  then became an artificial island joined to the mainland by bridges. The municipalities on the three parts voted to become a separate province, which happened in 1986.<br>


Flevoland is the youngest province of the Netherlands and consists almost entirely of land reclaimed from the sea. It borders on Friesland and Overijssel in the east, Gelderland and Utrecht in the south, Noord-Holland and the IJsselmeer in the west and the IJsselmeer in the north.

'''Genealogical Research in Flevoland'''
 
Even though this province is very new indeed, it doesn't mean that there is no research possible, see [http://blog.traceyourdutchroots.com/search/label/Flevoland Trace your Roots in Flevoland] <br>
 
There is also a lot of history to be found on this web-site and that alone is already very interesting.
 
The genealogical records for Urk and Schokland are kept by the [http://www.nieuwlanderfgoed.nl/english New Land Heritage Center]. The civil registration and the church records of these towns can be found in [https://www.wiewaswie.nl/en/home/ WieWasWie].

== Did you know?  ==
 
On 1 January 1986 the Netherlands officially added, after more than one hundred years, a new province: Flevoland, with Lelystad as the capital. The crowning of the immense project to drain large parts of the IJsselmeer. After the Noordoostpolder and Eastern Flevoland, Southern Flevoland also dried up in 1968. The three polders all belong to the new province. The Romans gave the name Flevo to the inland sea that, after the Afsluitdijk was build, is now the IJsselmeer.
 
Emigration from Flevoland
 
Flevoland doesn’t have a long history, so it doesn’t have a long history of emigration either. When the dike turned the sea into a lake, many fishermen around the new IJsselmeer lost their jobs. Many of them left the region to find a new life. Quite a few went to Twente and the neighboring German area where there was plenty of work to be found in the textiles factories.
