Translation services Polish and Latin into English:
I offer a professional translation of any family records written in Polish or Latin (birth, marriage and death certificates, wills, letters, diaries, you name it – I have worked on it before). I am aware of a research value of any possible piece of information that can be extracted from the source. Your document has more meaning to me than just dates and names. I can see beyond that and provide you with a snapshot of your ancestors everyday life based on the source you give me. (It is probably a habit I developed over the years of training as an archaeologist; very useful for a family historian).
Translation services Russian into English:
If your family comes from the part of Poland that was under a Russian rule most of your source texts dated between the late nineteenth and early twentieth century are probably written in Russian. Let me see them and I will work my magic on them.
Transcription Services:
I offer a transcription of your source documents as they usually come handwritten and hard to decipher. I spent long hours admiring lovely handwritings and even longer hours working like Sherlock Holmes unveiling secrets hidden by some long gone priests. You can rest assured that I am not afraid of a challenge, and you will get your document nicely typed up.
Other:
I can handle your correspondence with any relevant office in Poland. I grew up in Poland; I know how to be patient and how to deal with Polish clerks.
Get in contact with me and I will try and accommodate all your research needs.
