After a search costing one unit or more - the images are usually available to view at a cost of five units. £10 is usually if you order a copy. 30 Units cost £6 - but you probably already know that. Maureen

I usually try to check info on ScotsOrigins or IGI before doing searches and spending money on ScotlandsPeople. If the marriage is before 1855 then you probably will not be able to view image but would have to order it at £10. Maureen

Val, Sorry that you can not read the image. I have a couple from ScotlandsPeople like that and nothing I do to them will make them easier to read. Good luck. Maureen
