For those with ancestors from the Netherlands East Indies, especially the Batavia/Jakarta area: Leiden University has digitalised the archives of the Kong Koan (吧城公館, Chineesche Raad) and made them accessible online at: https://digitalcollections.universiteitleiden.nl/search/?type=edism...

It is a bit hard to browse, but there is a wealth of information about individuals, including applications for ID cards and letters of permission to transport bodies to China for burial.
