I see that there are records, again from the Netherlands, and most-likely the ones I helped indexing, but they are all from the West of the country, my family is from the east, Drenthe, Overijssel and Gelderland. But after being promised 8 -10 years ago, still nothing to help me and my family. How come
WE ARE IMPORTANT TOO. HELP When? I'm willing to index them, I also can read the dialects that might be used in them

My personal interest is in ancestors in Sweden, so I was interested in seeing what Swedish records had been newly added. However, when I clicked on the provided link, it took me to a general Search and from thence to a an extensive list of microfilms numbers--evidently the entire list available and not just the new ones added. It would have been more helpful to have seen the new ones, in case any of them might have covered areas that had been previously not yet available.... Anyway that you might be able to post such lists? Thanks!
