I know its a bother but send it back with a polite note. They will look it up for you and send it back with the name typed. Ihave done this once and wish I had done it a second time since I may be following the wrong family!!. It is really worth getting the correct info. Regards jeanie

I'm trying to make out the maiden name of a relative shown on her son's marriage certificate in 1856 but just can't make it out. Does anyone have any tips - I've tried blowing it up and looking at it as a negative but still no good. Many thanks
