Help with Names please. Completed with thanks
« on: Monday 14 February 11 14:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi friends,

              can you please help me again if possible, the writing is hard to make out well especially for me anyway, SpecSavers here I come !!, can anyone make out the name please.

The top section I can make part of it out " Of Lasswade " I think the bottom parts reads George and Sarah Ann Coutts, a second opinion would be great thanks.

Best regards.

Archie.

Hi Jo,

           I Have tried and tried, I get all I get is, " An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry! There is already an attachment with the same filename as the one you tried to upload. Please rename the file and try again. "

I have change the file name three times and getting fed up.

Cheers.

Archie.

Funnily enough I had the same problem yesterday trying to upload a photograph.
I thought it was me ( it usually is ::) so I gave up and planned to try again today.
I will try later and see what happens.

What file names are you using?  Bear in mind that if anyone else has used that name you'll get the error.  Try and pick something specific to you

...or it could just have been a technical hitch  :)

Hi all,

           thanks for being patient, I hope this works.

The top part all I can make out is " Of Lasswade ".

The bottom part I think it could be George Coutts and Sarah Ann Coutts, a second opinion would be better.

Thanks again.

Yipppeeeeeeee it worked.

Archie.

There's a Lasswade in Midlothian but not a Rasswade as far as I can see!

Hi Danuslave  and anabanana,

                                       Thank you both very much for your help absolutely brilliant, I knew I could rely on the fantastic team of experts on this site.

Jocie, I changed the file name and used the surname of my kin then it loaded.

Many thanks again.

Regards.

Archie.
