Militia records give a person’s name, birth date and place, parents’ names, and marital status. They can be arranged by municipality or by district [''canton'' or ''arrondissement'']. Not all of the records still exist. Where preserved, they are usually kept in the municipal archives or by the municipal secretary; some are at the state archives. Records from the provinces of Friesland, Gelderland, Groningen, and Limburg have been filmed by the Family History Library.
