I don't have any suggestions regarding translation software :-(. However, you
may want to try William Hoffman's article, Translating Letters >from the Polish
National Archives, published in the August 95 issue of Rodziny, the journal of
the Polish Genealogical Society of America. The article includes some general
information and a list of selected expressions likely to appear in such
