:Justin Corfield’s book incorporates some of, perhaps the British burial entries of, three of the four volumes of the book by P.C. Bloys van Treslong Prins, ''Genealogische en heraldische gedenkwaardigheden betreffende Europeanen op Java'', [''Genealogical and heraldic memorabilia relating to Europeans in Java''] published 1934-1939, but not Volume 4, published in Batavia in 1939 and not widely available due to WW2. Volume 4 appears to be available at the [[British Library]] , UIN: BLL01002992238 (note the BL appears to be missing Volume 3), and Volume 4 is also included, together with the first three volumes, in the DVD mentioned below (Dutch language). Note that the FamilySearch catalogue, see following, states that the information has been "transcribed from gravestones".
