This page is part of the Berghapedia, the free online encyclopaedia of the municipality of Bergh, which has existed in the east of the Netherlands from the early 19th century until 2005. During this period, a number of mergers and border corrections were carried out.

The Berghapedia is in Dutch, but on special request an English version of the page Bevolkingsregister is provided here.


Introduction

The population registers of the former municipality of Bergh (including Netterden until 1863) cover the period from 1829 to 1937.

Each page of the population register books provides a list of all persons who were residing at a given address during the period in question. In addition to the name the register usually mentions each person's birth date, relation to the principal occupier (relative, employee, lodger, etc.) and, if applicable, the date of arrival or departure and where the person came from or moved to.

In most cases not all persons on the same page belonged to one family. Personnel, lodgers and other residents were registered as well. When the principal occupier and his family left and new occupiers moved in, those who had left were crossed out and the new occupiers’ names were entered. Thus, persons registered at the same address were not necessarily living there at the same time. When the register books were getting full and/or too many names had been crossed out, new register books were taken and everyone was registered anew.

When a widow remarried, a new page was started and her new husband was registered as the new principal occupier. This was done from the time when the population registers were organised alphabetically rather then according to house numbers, which was the way it was done initially. Thus, a page of the population register shows the names of all of those who have been living there at some time or another during the period concerned. The names that are crossed out are of those who had left before others moved in.

The registered names can be found on the website of the Erfgoedcentrum Achterhoek en Liemers in Doetinchem, which covers several municipal archives in the area. This website is only in Dutch, but instructions in English on how to search its database follow in the next section on this page.

The population registers do not mention a person's place of birth. This can only be found in the Civil Register, which was started in 1811 (see external link at the bottom of this page). The population register usually does mention a person's date of birth, but especially in the early years this information is not reliable.

Searching the population register online

Since 2012, scans of the population registers of the municipality of Bergh are available online on the website of the Erfgoedcentrum Achterhoek en Liemers (ECAL). When searching for a person you will find not only that person, but all persons that belonged to the same household. In most cases the relation to the main tenant is given as well as information like the profession and the dates when the person took up residence or moved out.

A person can be found by clicking the button <Personen> followed by <Persoon in bevolkingsregister> and then filling in the search fields.
