I have found a lot of images of my families marriage certificates but they are hardly readable. Is there a programme that I can download to sharpen these up please? There are far to many to put on here so thought that I would try and do it myself.Some of the names are hardly legible.
Many thanks. Josie

It just says Huddersfield District but is it possible to find out which Church without sending for marriage cert? Trying to find more on Muriel.
1939 Register she says that her birth date was 17 Feb 1914 but I cannot find any birth to match that date range anywhere. Once I have located her birth I can send for certificate which takes me safely back along this line.
I once had a record of Church marriages but cannot find the link now. Must get more organised.
As  always, any help gratefully received.
Regards,
Josie.

Lancashire / 44 and 52 Dublin Street,
« on: Saturday 30 May 20 12:00 BST (UK)  »
Marriage 5 Aug 1901 at St Nicholas gives address of bride Margaret Ann Boardman, widow nee Dowbiggin 44 Dublin Street and groom James Todd address 52 Dublin Street. cannot find his death or where he was in 1901 to locate his place of birth. She reverted to her married name of Boardman in 1911. 1911 • Upper Beau Street, Everton, Liverpool
This census shows the 'widow' Margaret Ann Boardman (should be TODD ?) living with her two unmarried sons, John Charles and Albert Boardman.Trying to locate deaths of both. Obviously James died before 1911 as Margaret was a widow. Or was she?
Cannot find James Todd in 1901 The only 'close' record of  a James Todd that I can find to date is in the 1901 census, which shows a James of the exact same age.         He is a 'vagrant', born in Ireland, and residing as an inmate of the Walton 'Test Home'  (A type of 'Workhouse).     This may not be the correct James.......but if correct, might explain his inclination to not being around 10 yrs after his marriage.         
Any help please? As always gratefully received.

Father James is an engineer. John is a boiler maker.
As they both (John and Ada) lived in Knight Street would it be any help to look up that address in 1881 to see if father is there?
As always all help, suggestions etc. gratefully received.
I wrote to DRO but they searched years on both sides 1861-1865 and could not find any birth with a father William.
Do not know where to go from here

The Common Room / christina may hay born 17 may 1896
« on: Wednesday 21 November 18 14:16 GMT (UK)  »
Her residence in 1939 and her death cert both give same birthdate but I cannot find her place of birth to send for her birth certificate. I am wondering if she was born in Scotland.
I have her marriage cert ;
Marriage
27 Aug 1919 • St.John and St.James, Litherland, West Derby, Lancashire

He is a tobacconist at 15 Province Road. Father John Charles, plasterer. She is living at 19 Elizabeth Road. Father John a seaman. Witnesses; Thomas William Hammond and Mary Hodgson.
So all I know is that her father was John and he was a seaman.
Are there any Scottish records to search please?
She died in 1974 in Liverpool.
As ever, all help gratefully received.
Regards,
Josie
