Being handwritten, those docs were not in a specific font. You will just have to choose a script type font that is closest, unless someone has designed a font to match those documents.

Anything that will look even close is not going to be included in MS Word.



If you really want it, and want to pay for it, go to FontBureau and look.  You can also send them an email and they will probably be able to suggest something that will work.

You'll notice some of the lowercase 's's look like 'f's. That's weird, but how they wrote back then I guess.

Most of the posters in this thread are pretty dense.  He knows that it wasn't printed by a computer.  He's asking for a computer font that closely resembles it.
