           Old Handwriting

Problems with Old Handwriting? Perplexed by Palaeography? Let ‘My Ain Folk’ transcribe your hard to read old Scottish and English documents.

My Ain Folk’s transcription service is designed specifically for genealogists and the old documents frequently used in family history research including parish records, wills, testaments and deeds.

We can read old forms of English and Scottish handwriting and provide explanations of unusual words and phrases, giving you the help you need to advance in your research.

You supply a copy of the document to be transcribed either as a good photocopy or as a digital image via email or on CD-Rom.

In return My Ain Folk will provide you with a semi-diplomatic transcription with accompanying notes and a full modern transcript where appropriate.

Please send a copy of your document to either our email or postal address to get a no-obligation quote.
