Does the inversion make reading/guessing () easier?  If so Iwill invert the rest of it!

You are brave . .  And we continue to work on it also.

I have not looked at the inversion really. ???
I am only making guesses and hoping to be picking up bits correctly..
It needs a wider range of opinions than just the ones I offer.

I've sharpened it up a bit - it's now very big - will send it to Wiggy to chop up, if it might help.

Thanks Gadget.   Will go and see what I can do about chopping it up.   It is a shocker isn't it!
Hmmm . . .  I had a go at sharpening it up earlier and wasn't sure it was a big improvement. 

It really is almost un-do-able.  Is that a good word?

Here is my inversion of the second part,

And 3rd Row  - sharpened - and or inverted.

I think I can see Sylvia/ Sophia at the left hand end of last line!   Not much help!   ;)

Wiggy - you've reduced the size so it's more difficult to read than the original. Any chance of sending me the original - full size.

 I will send what I have Gadget, but the original photo was tiny and I scanned it then reduced it to post - I didn't save the original at 800, but I have the 600dpi version which I will send - photo has gone home with owner.

What I have is on its way. The higher dpi didn't make much difference really.

Please don't wreck your eyesight on this folks!

At least my friend knows enough to know which side of the family it belongs to - it is just interesting, this large family from outback NSW.
