Limburgs Geschied- en Oudheidkundig Genootschap (Limburg's Historical and Antiquarian Society) is the historical society for the province Limburg.
Many cities, regions, towns and villages have their own historical society.
Please note that Dutch graves are usually rented, and reused after the rental period. Headstones and other monuments are destroyed, and human remains removed and often reburied in an anonymous mass grave.
