The national militia was organized in 1816, generating militia registers and conscription lists. Young men were registered during their 18th year of age in the municipality they lived in. They began serving in their 20th year, either by volunteering or by being drafted. Some were exempt from serving, including those with bodily impairments and those who had a brother already serving. Until 1898, drafted men were allowed to find a replacement to serve for them. | '''National Militia [''Nationale Militie'']''' | ||

Militia records give a person’s name, birth date and place, parents’ names, and marital status. They can be arranged by municipality or by district [''canton'' or ''arrondissement'']. Not all of the records still exist. Where preserved, they are usually kept in the municipal archives or by the municipal secretary; some are at the state archives. Records from the provinces of Friesland, Gelderland, Groningen, and Limburg have been filmed by the Family History Library. | Militia records give a person’s name, birth date and place, parents’ names, and marital status.
