Palm Pics Improve Parish Register
I recently replaced my old PDA with a Palm Zire 71. The Palm Zire 71 has a built
in camera which proved to be invaluable when I recently visited the Family History
Library in Salt Lake City. I photographed a parish register page that was virtually
illegible. I then downloaded the image to my PC, and using Adobe Elements to
lighten and adjust the contrast of the image, I was able to decipher the contents.
