Seattle Genealogical Society Tip of the Week Genealogical Translations
TIP OF THE WEEK -IN NEED OF TRANSLATION
This issue’s tip came out of this month’s Second Saturday Speaker Series presentation by Carolyn Schott. There is a Facebook Group called Genealogical Translations and their purpose is just that, the translation of genealogy documents only. It is a private group so you must ask to join. This group might be the answer to your prayers. Here’s how they describe themselves:
“Genealogical Translations was established to provide amateur family researchers a place to have their genealogical documents translated. We are a global volunteer group whose members help other members by offering free translation of their genealogical documents such as vital records, postcards, obituaries, and more, in languages including – Dutch, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Latin, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and many others!
Before posting, new members are expected to familiarize themselves with the Posting Format and Group Rules, and all other Featured posts.”
