Help deciphering marriage entry please
« on: Monday 30 January 12 21:47 GMT (UK) »
I have seen a marriage record but cannot read all of it but I cant copy it to put here for it to be seen.  Is it ok to give a link and the names and it be looked at that way for deciphering please?

You could give that a shot. Or you could try to use "Print Screen" (on a PC you may  have to hold down the 'alt' button) which will take a snapshot of everything displayed on your screen and copy it to your clipboard.

You can then paste it into Paint and crop it as needed.

Hope that helps.  :)

I wouldn't paste it into Paint actually, as Paint automatically reduces everything to a measly 72dpi and you'll lose resolution. Paste it into your photo editor (Microsoft Picture Manager for example) where you can crop it without loss of image clarity.
