Hi List Here's a new source of inormation for those whose ancestors came from the Netherlands. To quote : GENLIAS - takes its information "directly from the Civil Register, the most important Dutch source for genealogical research covering the period since 1811." GENLIAS "gives you a quick way to find your Dutch forebears from as far back as 1780." http://www.genlias.nl/pls/gls03/home?cid=CXsULCYoskhEgfyImBhysI4d2&cmd=pageEnglish Don't panic when it opens in Dutch there is a button to click to give you the English version. Best Wishes Les
