@FrancesShepherd5 - Thank you for asking. :)
For things related to translation or FamilySearch.org, I defer to the members of the community. I am here to help the community itself. I am nowhere close to being a subject matter expert and the last French I took was so many eons ago, I'm almost embarrassed to say I studied French. ;)

Hello,
French is my first language. I had a look at the document, I can make out some of it, but the handwriting is hard to decipher, if you want me to, I can try and figure it out though.

The best place is to join the French community and put the post there. To find the community, click the question mark at the top of the page, click "Community," search for "France," and click "Join". Generally, there is a quick response. One of the responses said that it is hard to read, so it may take a while.
