Don,t know if this has already been posted but the water damaged records which have been unavailable, are receiving some magic process which renders them readable although it will probably be some time........
I struck unlucky on this one years ago.

Happy days

Yes, I was sent a copy of the transcript which has been made, of the page with my gt gt grandmother on. I think UV light is possibly making some of it readable and in other cases the people transcribing it are making educated guesses. There were some blank spaces in the transcript and some question marks so obviously not 100 % readable/decipherable.
