The website Uit de oude koektrommel has a useful page with abbreviations you may come across when using population registers. The page has four categories:
- Algemeen [general]
- Kerkelijk gezindte [Religious affiliation]
- Plaatsen en provincies [Place names and provinces]
- Landen [Countries].
The page is in Dutch, but once you know the full term you can often use a translator like Google Translate to translate the terms to a different language.
