In parts of Eastern Gelderland and Overijssel, Farm names were used before 1811. Under this system, instead of having a surname, persons used the name of the farm they resided at. When they moved(usually only at marriage), their name changed. In 1811 their surnames were fixed. | In parts of Eastern Gelderland and Overijssel, Farm names were used before 1811.
