Hi Andy I couldn't get the URL to work but found the following which I believe is OK.

I once bought a Helix magnifying ruler from a family history fair which is useful looking at old documents. It may help.

Phil, if you send me one of your high resolution images I will take a look to see how it may be improved.

Thank you for the offer but it is also the style of writing that I find difficult?
I think a genealogist is needed.

Thank you to everyone who has suggested helpful methods.
