The archives of the De Dobbel-Beker currently has more than 60,000 names, most of them are linked to one of our family trees.
All this is the result of years of searching in all kinds of archives by plenty of enthusiastic researchers.
Many of these family trees we found go until in the 17th century, sometimes even earlier.
We note that from about 1650 it is extremely difficult to find information.
There are suspicions how some of our more than 75 family trees Dobbelaer-Dobbeleer are related to each other.
In 2010 the Dobbel-Beker decided to join in on the DNA project of the Flemish society (VVF).
Provided that a simple saliva test could examine the individual DNA profile and phylogenetic relationships between people.
During our anniversary celebration in 2011 we announced this DNA data.
