Remember that some names are very common. Don't assume that just because the names match that it is the same person. Marriage Supplements are especially useful to eliminate these sort of errors, as they indicate the exact date of births and deaths. | Remember that some names are very common.

Always view the Marriage supplements after you have found a marriage using Zoekakten. Note the aktenummer(act number) of the marriage record, for the supplements are arranged in order of number. In some places the number is placed prominently in the corner of the image on a white card(added by the film taker). In most places each marriage has a title page giving the number, groom, and number of pages(not necessarily the number of images) . Finding the record you are after can be a long process, but it is worth it. As a general rule when searching, each marriage takes 5-6 images. Use this, the month, and the act number(Zoekakten often has the number of marriages that year displayed), to make an estimate of where to look first. | Always view the Marriage supplements after you have found a marriage using Zoekakten.

Zoekakten and WieWasWie have began a partnership to index Marriage supplements, making them far easier to browse. | ||
