Consider genealogical word lists w/English translation?

Post by alexmatheson1 »

Would you consider genealogical word lists (Ex. Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Italian/Latin, Cyrillic/Russian, etc.) w/English translation on the FamilySearch Family Tree app. I know that they used to be in paper format that you could order through the Salt Lake Distribution Center. ( I don't know if they are still available that way)

Those would be helpful in non-English documents.

Also, a soundex system for surnames -Anglicized/Americanized of Old World surnames.

www.avotaynu.com (affiliated with JewishGen) has a good one.

(Particually helpful in finding Eastern European/Old World surnames)

If you're wanting your suggestion to be considered by FamilySearch for implementation, please send it to FamilySearch. The Forum is basically only a user-to-user discussion forum, so nobody here has the power to push your suggestion toward being implemented.
