Try the Dutch Jewish Genealogy Society <nljewgen.org>, I Think. Slow, but
helpful. The Amsterdam archives are wonderful, too, but so far as I know
they do not have an e-mail address.

Can anyone advise on obtaining birth records >from Holland circa 1805?
I have written to the State Archives but have had no reply.

MODERATOR NOTE: You will find a list of all Jewish Genealogy Societies
that are members of IAJGS on the JewishGen site at
<http://www.jewishgen.org/iajgs/ajgs-jgss.html>. The web site for the
Netherlands society is <http://www.nljewgen.org >.

The e-mail address of the Municipal Archives of Amsterdam

Their Internet address is: http://www.gemeentearchief.amsterdam.nl

Though most of the staff is fluent in English, the Internet site is
mostly in Dutch.

You are welcome to call on me to translate sentences or paragraphs -
Please, not whole pages!

Since you're in Jerusalem, there's a good resource for genealogy at the
Center for Research on Dutch Jewry at the Hebrew University. Their web
site is http://shum.cc.huji.ac.il/~dutchjew/genealog.html
