Hi Alex,

for those people who have difficulty reading the handwriting on the records
after 1855, the registrars for each town are an excellent source for
transcribing these records to give you the correct spelling and other
details. Some Registrars have been looking after these records for many
years, Irvine is just such a place and I have had several almost unreadable
entries made crystal clear. Dan.
