This page lists websites and online resources for genealogy in the Netherlands. Where possible English versions of websites have been given, but many come in Dutch or Frisian only. It is recommended to use Google Chrome and Google Translate for these websites. Some common Dutch terms encountered on websites are given at the bottom of this page.


=== Overview ===
=== WieWasWie ===


Have you always wanted to know from whom you are descended? Genlias gives you a quick way to find your Dutch forebears, both in the Netherlands and overseas. Your search is in the most accurate source for Dutch genealogy, the Civil Register. And it is not difficult! <br>
[[Netherlands WieWasWie Records|WieWasWie]] is the premier site for Netherlands genealogy and also for former Dutch colonies. Most of the site is free, but it costs 18.50 euros for advanced features. It contains indexes to civil registration from every part of the Netherlands. By now nearly all marriage records up to 1932 are online, as well as a sizable proportion of death records to 1962 and birth records to 1912. It also has some church records, population registers, military conscription records and newspaper notices. Many records also have the original image. 145 Million names are online as of October 2017.  


GenLias is a national Dutch database containing information for use in genealogical research. It is a joint initiative by the national archive services and the regional historical centres. This means that it is not a database of documents held by the Nationaal Archief. <br>
*WiewasWie                            [https://www.wiewaswie.nl/ Website]
*WiewasWie (English Version)    [https://www.wiewaswie.nl/en/ Website]


GenLias holds data from the Civil Register. This is the official record of births, marriages and deaths in the Netherlands. It has existed in most of the country since 1811, but in the province of Limburg somewhat longer. Although GenLias contains a large proportion of this data, not all Dutch local authorities are yet included. Some provinces, such as Zuid-Holland, are still barely represented. <br>
=== Open Archives ===
[[Open Archives]] is now posed as a rival to WieWasWie. It has 141 million records online, with most records on WieWasWie also on Open Archives.  


The database also contains some details of baptisms, marriages and deaths maintained by church parishes prior to 1811, as well as memoranda of inheritance from the 19th century.
=== Family Search  ===


On the GenLias homepage itself, you can download a detailed summary of the data available. To reach this, click on the "What's in GenLias?" link. Scroll down till you find "Current database status" and click on the orange(!) link. Choose the province and then the town you are looking for. If the town is not there, no records are as yet available on this site. If there are records, it will tell you which time period and what type of records are covered. There are even records included from some of the Dutch colonies. <br>
Family Search has built up a large collection of Netherlands records, most of which are online. Civil registration and church records can be viewed through [https://www.genealogiewerkbalk.nl/fs/ Genealogie Werkbalk] . The following collections exist that cannot be viewed through Genealogie Werkbalk


'''Statistics 2009''' Genlias currently contains 13.5 million records, representing almost 55 million individuals. In 2009 Genlias was visited 2 million times and almost 23 million questions were answered.
