Alphabetical indexes for baptisms 1619-1811 are also available through the HCO.
 
=== Catholic  ===
 
There were 4 Roman Catholic parishes in Zwolle- Hoornsteeg, Spiegelsteeg, Bogenkerk and Koestraat. Their records for baptisms and marriages start in the late seventeenth century. There were no rural parishes in Zwolle, so Catholics living in Zwollerkerspel had to attend an urban parish- usually the closest one to where they lived, which for some may have been Dalfsen, Heino or Kampen.

=== Marriages ===
=== Other Religions ===
 
Wallonian Reformed (Waalse Gereformeered) records go back to 1686, Lutheran records back to 1684, Mennonite (Doopsgezinde) back to 1696 and Jewish records back to 1774 in Zwolle. There were no churches other than Dutch Reformed in the former Zwollerkerspel. 
 
=== Secular DTB Records ===
Many secular records were kept by the authorities in the city of Zwolle. In particular, they kept birth records for non-Dutch Reformed children from around 1727 onwards, categorized by religion.  Between 1774 and 1794 another more detailed register was also kept for these births- a very useful supplement to church records. Birth records for Dutch and Wallonian Reformed children were also kept from 1774.The HCO has online all images of these records, which include far more than is described here.
 
== Civil Registration  ==
In 1811 the Napoelonic Regime began the  [[Netherlands Civil Registration|civil registration]] of births, marriages and deaths. This has been continued by the Dutch government ever since. 
 
For both the former municipalities  Zwolle and Zwollerkerspel, births from 1811-1912, marriages from 1811-1932 and deaths from 1811-1960 are on [[WieWasWie]] and [http://openarch.nl/ OpenArch] 
 
The original images are not linked to this index, so use the FamilySearch Catalog that may/have images for births 1913-1916, marriages 1933-1941 and deaths 1961-1966. Births older than 100 years, marriages older than 75 years and deaths older than 50 years are able to be publicly released but archives can be behind putting them online. Current policy is to release records in ten year blocs, so that in 2018 marriages to 1942 will be released and in 2023 births to 1922 and deaths to 1972 will be released.
 
== Other Records ==
Population Registers were kept from 1850. 
 
The [https://historischcentrumoverijssel.nl/archieven/?mivast=20&mizig=235&miadt=141 Zwolle General Index] (Generale Index) is a searchable database on the site of the HCO of Zwolle records. One notable collection is the 1812 census, which often includes birthdates and names of parents.


Every one, of any religion, had to marry in the Dutch Reformed Church. The records for both Zwolle are on [http://vpnd.nl/ov/zwolle_dtb_tr.html VPND] on this page. Records for Windesheim Zwollerkerspel) are also on VPND.
