A biography is a history of a person’s life. In a biography you may find the individual’s birth, marriage, and death information and the names of his or her parents, children, or other family members. Use the information carefully because there may be inaccuracies.

Usually these only include biographies of prominent citizens of the Netherlands. Others feature biographies of specific groups of people such as artists or ministers.
