Personal index card of Johannes Marijnissen
A persoonskaart is a personal record card, introduced in 1939 to register who lived where. Persoonskaarten are one of the most important sources for research in the 20th century, because they are one of the few records that can be obtained within 50 years after a person’s death.

Hallo Yvette,
Ik heb net op de CBG website gekeken en kan geen persoonskaart vinden van mijn grootvader, Theodorus Christiaan. De naam Tellekamp schijnt daar niet te bestaan. Wat doe ik verkeerd?
De kaarten moeten besteld worden, tegen betaling.
