Dutch Genealogical Research by Charles M Franklin

From the “The purpose of this book is to assist all people who have Dutch ancestry. In scope, it will deal with immigrants from what is now known as the Be-Ne-Lux countries, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg. After researching my own Dutch ancestors for many years, a pattern of problems became evident. Nowhere could I find an available reference in layman’s English to help simplify the many perplexing problems posed in researching a Dutch family. A great number of specialized references are scattered throughout many research aids. Hopefully, this book will help bring together the many sources necessary to solve Dutch genealogical problems.” The Table Of Contents includes the following Its History, Immigration and Migrations, Dutch Records in America, Research in the Netherlands, What’s in a Name?, Glossary, Heraldry, Dutch Towns and Their Provinces, Belgian Towns and Their Provinces, Luxembourg Towns, Genealogical Periodicals, Genealogical Societies and Library, and Bibliography.
