This is a list of ancestors from the Medieval Counties and Duchess that are currently The Netherlands. Nobility refers to the local rulers and their descendants, who usually reign from a castle or a city, referred to as Heer van (lord of) [city/area]. Many times they have a coat of arms and are given a title in latin records of nobilis or militis, meaning Knight (ridder).

Feel free to add. All we need is the "last" name, a link to the oldest ancestor, indicate if this branch came from another family group, and a picture of their coat of arms. Don't add sources etc, as these can be easily found in the profiles.
