From the former Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia) ¶ 5

Here is a list of Merkelbachs who resided in the former Dutch East Indies. I believe it was drawn up by Louis Henricus Merkelbach whose name also appears on it. It is not a complete list. Hyperlinked are those names that appear on the Heerlen, Groningen or Maastricht branches. ¶ 6

To learn more about the plight of Indonesian Netherlanders when Indonesia became independent in 1950, see Wikipedia (in Dutch) and Wikipedia (in English). ¶ 7
