Land records can help you learn where an individual lived in a specific place and when he or she lived there. They can also help you establish patronymic family ties. Often the records will name entire family groups, since in many parts of the country each child (or grandchild) had an inherited right to the land or house. | Land records can help you learn where an individual lived in a specific place and when he or she lived there.

Netherlands Land and Property[edit | edit source]
Land records can help you learn where an individual lived in a specific place and when he or she lived there. They can also help you establish patronymic family ties. Often the records will name entire family groups, since in many parts of the country each child (or grandchild) had an inherited right to the land or house.
Transfers of land [akten van verkoop or transporten van onroerend goed] from one party to another is the most common type of land record. Mortgages [hypotheken] are also found. Land transfers and mortgages may be recorded in separate books but are frequently found with other kinds of court records in the grouping known as voluntary jurisdiction.
Mortgages for Friesland are recorded separately and have been filmed in their entirety by the FamilySearch Library. The records are indexed and found in the FamilySearch Catalog on the district [grietenij] level.
Feudal land records [leenregisters] describe the use of land, houses, fishing waters, or other property granted to someone in return for a yearly payment, military duty, or sworn fealty. The entitlement was usually hereditary, and one can often trace several generations of ancestors. The records cover 1400 to 1796.
Land and Cadastral Records (Land registers)[edit | edit source]
Research use: Primarily for family relationships and to extend lineage beyond other existing records.
Record type: Declarations of land ownership, property, estates and purchase agreements.
Time Period: 1200-present.
Content: Land holders’ and renters’ names, taxes and rent paid, dates of deeds, residence, land descriptions, fathers’ names and sometimes names of several generations of ancestors; date and mode of land acquisition (from a parent or grandparent, by dowry, or division).
Location: Provincial, state, city, municipal and regional archives.
Population coverage: 10%.
Reliability: Good.[1]
Locating Land and Property Records[edit | edit source]
Land transfer and mortgage records are housed in state, regional, and municipal archives. Feudal land records are found in government and church archives and also manor and castle archives. Feudal records of Gelderland and Overijssel are indexed, and those of South Holland are being published in the genealogical journal Ons Voorgeslacht (Our Ancestry).
FamilySearch Library Records. Copies of many land records have been acquired by the FamilySearch Library. To determine whether the library has land records for the locality your ancestor came from, look in the Place search of the catalog under each of the following:
NETHERLANDS – LAND AND PROPERTY
NETHERLANDS, [PROVINCE] – LAND AND PROPERTY
NETHERLANDS, [PROVINCE], [TOWN] – LAND AND PROPERTY
Land records are also included in court and notarial records. For more information, see the "Court Records" and "Notarial Records" sections.
House books (Huizboeken)[edit | edit source]
These records contain lists of owners and residents of a given house and can cover the time period 1430 to 1900. The records may show names, ages, family relationships, taxes paid, dates of residence of individuals and families. The records can be found at provincial, city and municipal archives.
