Hi Sylviaann,
                      Any chance of giving us a chance by rescanning at a far higher resolution,
say 300/600 d.p.i. otherwise the answer is no.

This is the best I could do with such a small file. I'm not happy with it at all, I could do better with a bigger one.

Thank you.  I forgot to add the black & white picture.  She was only 18 when she married although the certificate says 21.  And I think she was pregnant

The colours in the one I posted above looked terrible when I viewed it on my monitor at home...nothing like what it looked like at work so I've taken it off.  Undecided

Had another play and added some effects..probably worse than my first effort LOL  Roll Eyes
