TRANSLATIONS
The GGS members and others listed will do translations from German to English. Contact them individually to discuss their availability, their experience, and the scope, schedule, and cost of your project.

Script means Handwritten; Print means printed or typed.

To Locate a Translator near your residence, check whether the local school district offers German and if so ask the teacher to translate for a suitable fee. 

If you need translators for other languages, see the list at the Federation of East European Family History Societies (FEEFHS) website <http://www.feefhs.org/>

When working with a translator send only a copy of the original document, not the original.
