Wrong film

Philippe van Wersch

Film 004630629 /110908 is about the dutch town of Wanssum, but you can find it under the town Wijlre. That's not correct. One is North part of this province the other is the south part of the province. Where can I find the civil-film Wijlre 1799-1810

The decennial indexes for Wijlre 1797-1882 are on film 4644057: https://www.familysearch.org/search/film/004644057?i=2&cc=2026214.

Births, marriages, and deaths appear to actually be available starting in 1805: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939F-1L94-KL?i=2&wc=2KHS-15W%3A343122901%2C343279602&cc=2026214.

Hi Philippe,

Yes, strange mixup. There is a discontinued site, genver.nl, with indexes to FS films, with this page about Limburg places https://genver.nl/indexlb.htm and this one on civil registers (Burgerlijke Stand) Wijlre: https://genver.nl/lb/bs0991.htm

Please note the "index per film" links are not functioning anymore.

I hope one of these films is the one you are looking for.

Kind Regards,

Jan

To Jan: the original Genver was a beautiful site. A shame it was copied by someone using all the information that was published on the first and original Denver site, later zoekakten.nl

To Julia: Thanks for the links.

Bye

@Philippe van Wersch

I could not agree more on what you say about Genver/zoekakten. Did some indexing for that site when it was still expanding.

Good luck with all your genealogical research!
