Darken and Sharpen?
« on: Friday 14 July 17 17:41 BST (UK) »
Hi!  Please can someone with more skills than me and a better computer programme than Microsoft Picture Manager have a go at darkening and sharpening the attached image?  I am particularly interested in cleaning up entry 1209 so I can read the Godparent's names.

Thanks so much!

No - sorry I should have been more detailed in my reply - it was a friend who was in the archives who scanned and sent it whilst looking for other stuff ...

Can't decide whether Harriet's surname is Wright or Nugent.
