Rotterdam, Netherlands, Death Index, 1811-1960

2,376,007 기록

Civil registration—the recording of births, marriages, and deaths by civil authorities—was instituted in the Netherlands in 1811. This collection is an index to Rotterdam death records from 1811 to 1960. Records typically include the following information: name of deceased, death date, death place, spouse’s name, parents’ names, marital status, and birthplace. Note that married women were recorded under their maiden names, and not under their married surnames. Deaths were usually recorded in the municipality where the death occurred, even if the deceased was a non-resident. In that event, a copy of the death record was usually sent to the deceased’s town of residence. This index also provides the register number—a unique number per record and year. The year and register number is necessary information for ordering a copy of the original death record from the Stadsarchief Rotterdam (Rotterdam City Archives). The original record may provide additional information such as the deceased’s occupation, whether the deceased’s spouse and parents were living or also deceased, and the names of the informants or witnesses (who were sometimes relatives or neighbors). This index was created by staff and volunteers at the Stadsarchief Rotterdam and was obtained from <a href=“http://www.rotterdamopendata.nl”>www.rotterdamopendata.nl</a>.
