Do you know of anyone who can translate Kurrent, Sutterlin German script?

I've never tried this software so don't know if it will be of any help but thought it might be worth a try. It appears that there's an option to try it for free.

@Jen Bankhead I saw this mentioned on another Forum, I have not used it myself.

If you have a somewhat large amount which requires translation, more than would be reasonable to ask in the Germany Research Group, you could investigate https://suetterlinstube.de/ which is a non profit organization based in Hamburg which will, for a donation, transcribe from Old German to Latin script, old handwritten documents, such as diaries or other family documents.
