Many municipalities have been absorbed or merged. Often the quickest way to find which municipality a place lies within today is to find the place on (Dutch) Wikipedia. A more formal resource is the [https://dans.knaw.nl/nl/over/organisatie-beleid/publicaties/DANSrepertoriumnederlandsegemeenten2011.pdf Repertorium van Nederlandse Gemeenten vanaf 1812 (Overview of Dutch municipalities since 1812)], which dates from 2011 (dozens of municipalities have been merged since then) and is a Gazetteer that shows changes in municipalities over the years, including merges. Skip over the introductory material to where the actual listings begin on page 52. The first line gives the existence dates. '''"Afgesplitst"''' means "split off of," '''"toegevoegd"''' means "added," '''"opgegaan in"''' means "merged," and '''"ontstaan uit"''' means "originated from." | |||
