Ok here's a question I have not seen on this list. I have a relative who's mother was given to the Salvation Army to be a foster child at 9 months of age in 1888-89. At the time the mother of this child was married but became 'with child' by another man. So we are unsure, and so was she whose linage her last name came from. We know it was not from her natural father as we know his last name. So my question is; I would like to contact the Salvation Army in Denmark and ask about records. Does anyone know if they open their records for this type of information? What about Danish birth certificates-how easy/difficult is it to obtain one? Do I need a translator to ask any of these questions when composing my letter? Thank you, Sandra
