Back in December  I did a humidification project with some rolled documents.  


Start with an empty box that has a lid - this is a Rubbermaid box - notice the rolled documents on the floor to the right.

Notebook - General Stuff No. 2, Part 3

Crume, Rick. Say What? Family Tree Magazine, June 2003.

Genealogists wear many hats, detective, historian, archivist, sociologist, interviewer - even translator. Solving some family history mysteries may hinge on your ability to decipher old documents or modern web pages written in a foreign language, or to communicate with someone who doesn't speak English.

Google Ease - use the Translate this Page option for foreign language sites. To access all the Google foreign-language resources, go to the home page and click on Language tools. Here you can search websites written in a specific language or located in another country and you can translate text or a web page.

To translate foreign languages - just type the text in Google's Translate text box. Other options:
