What type of system do you have?

If all else fails, do a screenshot and save that  as a jpeg.

To add to that, if you give your attached file the same name that someone else has used in the past,  it won't accept it, but I think you get an error message.

I didn't think it was shouting either - just a jammed caps lock. I have the opposite problem on old laptop - sticky shift on lhs, so everything in lower case

There's a marriage between a John Williams and Martha Ratcliffe in Wolverhampton district in 1853. Is it a different John Williams, or the same one who bigamously married Mary Smith in 1855, then went back to his legal wife?

Looking at Edward Ratcliffe (relative) who is with John Williams and Martha in 1871, I think he may be the one who married Catherine Jones in 1817. The family is on the 1841 census with one of the (presumed) children being Martha b abt 1829.

Also possible Thomas / Elizabeth are not the same couple. Or same Thomas with new, possibly younger Elizabeth.
I have a rellie called Clement (unusual forename) had children with wife Sarah, then gap then more children baptised to Clement and Sarah. I was searching for a long time for more children in the gap. Then I discovered burial for Sarah wife of Clement after the earlier set of children. Eventually discovered my Clement had got married later to another Sarah. And not married in the home parish but some miles away, of course. Ancestors don't make it easy do they?

The death I found in 1863 may not be for the right John Williams, he may still be alive for many years more; and Joseph and Mary Elizabeth may never have been able to marry.

There is a death of a John Williams age 30 in the Dudley RD in Q3 1863. A possibility but John Williams is quite a common name.

Joseph PARKER and Mary Elizabeth (WILLIAMS) are unmarried in the 1861 census,

In 1861 Mary Elizabeth Williams is married, only Joseph is unmarried. So John Williams is still somewhere around.
