The church records for most of the parishes in Zuid-Holland have been indexed by surname in 10 year increments - known as "family reconstruction". This family reconstruction, based on baptismal records from 1695-1815 (often includes the marriage date of the parents), refers to the so called "Gele Klappers" (yellow indices) of the baptisms (dopen); they contain information from 157 towns; they contain more than 1 million names. The cities of Brielle, Delft, Dordrecht, Gorinchem (Gorkum), Gouda, 's-Gravenhage (Den Haag or The Hague), Leyden, Maassluis, Rotterdam, Schiedam, and Vlaardingen (with their annexed municipalities) are not included in this index. These records are available for research in the National Archive in Den Haag and on microfilms in the Family History Library in Salt Lake City and its Centers around the world. You can find the film numbers for these records on the FamilySearch catalog under "Zuid-Holland" - church records indexes. Then choose "Klappers op de doop- en huwelijksregisters in Zuid-Holland van vóór 1812". See: Zuid-Holland baptism indexes. It is important that you remember which district number and name your town belongs to as you will need that information when you search for the right film.

Two of the islands, Voorne-Putten and Rozenburg, located South-West of Rotterdam in Zuid-Holland, have a number of small municipalities. A regional archive has been set up to include ancestral information for the following cities, towns or villages: Bernisse, Brielle, Hellevoetsluis, Nieuw-Helvoet (now a part of Hellevoetsluis), Rozenburg, Spijkenisse and Westvoorne. It also includes a historical outline of the following townships Abbenbroek, Biert, Blankenburg, and the city of Brielle. Some of the historical data goes back to the 12th century. A free website was created as a Regional Archive that can be accessed via the internet.
