Over the past few days I came into possession of a autobiography written by my grandfather. He is my mom's father who died a few years before I was born. I know so little about him that is reliable since most people's memories of the dead tend to be carefully filtered to only include the good. (not saying he was a bad person, but no one is a saint) I'm very excited to hear about him in his own words but I have one small problem.
It's written in german. Probably a dialect. I don't speak or read german so I'm still being stymied.
Where does a person get something like this translated? I don't want to use a family member (not that any who speak german are talking to me) since I cannot be sure that they will give an unbiased translation. There are characters in the document that I don't have on my keyboard, so I don't think I can use software or internet services.
