===3. Microfilmed Index of Parish Registers=== | |||
*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 [http://www.denhaag.nl/home/bewoners/kunst-en-cultuur/haags-gemeentearchief.htm '''National Archive in Den Haag'''] and on microfilms in the [[Family History Library|'''Family History Library in Salt Lake City''']] and [[Family History Centers|'''Family History Centers''']] around the world. | |||
*See: {{FHL|264512|title-id|disp=Zuid-Holland '''Klappers op de doop- en huwelijksregisters in Zuid-Holland van vóór 1812'''}} for the microfilm numbers. 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. | |||
