Most Dutch genealogists quickly fall in love with WieWasWie, the website where archives from all over the country publish their genealogical data. But there are plenty of archives, historical societies and genealogists who publish genealogical sources elsewhere on the web. So if you can’t find an ancestor on WieWasWie, try other sources as well. The website Digital Resources Netherlands and Belgium has a great overview of what else is available online.
