Before i go on i would like to thank granger for her work with me earlier on, she has made a massive difference.

Anyway, Ive gone as far back on my Grandmother side as i would like too, now i would like to try my grandfather side. Has anyone ever search Dutchs sites for names. I thought i would try ancestry for any tips but its well a brick wall.

My Grandfather "Frederick G P Volkers" was born on 13/07/1938 in holland "Possibly Utrecht" if anyone can kindly point me in the right direction i would certainly be grateful

Thanks

Nathan

My wife's Dutch and her side of the family has been researched right back to the 11th century . "Van Nieuwkoop" and they have their own Heraldry and stuff like that.
Someone in the family did it years ago.She has a copy I'll have a word with her tomorrow.
