-There were 4 Roman Catholic parishes in Zwolle- Hoornsteeg, Spiegelsteeg, Bogenkerk and Koestraat. There were no rural parishes in Zwolle, so Catholics living in Zwollerkerspel had to attend an urban parish- not necessarily one of the Zwolle parishes. Catholics formed about 20% of the population. Most Catholics would have been buried in the Dutch Reformed Church, and would have had to marry in the Dutch Reformed Church as well as in their Catholic parish. Their records tend to start no earlier than 1700.

Their records for baptisms and marriages start in the late seventeenth century and generally have no gaps. Many are transcribed on VPND and Sallands DTB.

 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.

-The civil authorities in the city of Zwolle 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.
+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.
-Post-1794.when the Netherlands fell to French-inspired rule, the former authority of the Dutch Reformed church waned. It was now required to marry civilily (whereas previously all marriages had been registered by the Dutch Reformed church). From 1806-1811, more detailed death and burial registers were kept.
