Hello Forum,
After some several months of looking, I still have not been able to find someone who can/will translate Norwegian "Gothic" since I have a few dozen pages. As someone who hasn't even reached novice status yet on translating Norwegian Gothic parish records, I need some help.
I was wondering if anyone knew someone who does these type of translations for a living or at least as a side job. I would want all the lines translated, not just the names and dates. I live in the United States, so it would have to be someone who's willing to receive the pages or links through email.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Kim |

The only that is readable in Gothic is the names.
I've read that the Archives has contact with persons that translate Gothic for payment link |

The Norwegian American Genealogical Center & Naeseth Library in Madison, WI have an option to hire an expert for Research and Translation Services. A note says: "Additional fees may apply for Gothic printing, handwritten script, or Nynorsk".
