  • This is a message to the people who tried to review the documents on top of this thread. I greatly appreciate when someone can help and can make corrections. Thank you for that! But I actually transcribed all 4 documents two weeks ago the best I could read them. Unfortunately the last one was totally messed up by someone who somehow tried to run the document through a transcription app or whatever. These things do not work! Not yet. And it makes it even worse when you do not speak the language. So please, when you try to run a document through these programs and you obviously can see the result is  complete garbage then please do not copy this in the transcription area and delete the work that someone already did. 

    Thank you.

  • If you email Lauren @crowd@loc.com or one of the other moderators they may be able to restore your transcription. They did it for me a few days ago. I guess they must have it saved somewhere.

  • Thank you Diane and Henry for your answers and advice. 

    I wrote my message a few days earlier before the moderator posted it. By that time the messed up document was somehow restored. I was not aware that this could be done but it is really good to know. Thank you!

  • I didn't know it could be restored either, Sabine. I had sent the page to Lauren because nobody seemed to be tackling the page and she told me she restored it from what had been previously transcribed and suggested I accept it. After I posted my response to you, I realized we were probably talking about the same page. That was some tough handwriting.
