The page was read at about 0.9x in left and right halves for each entry, then every doubtful cell was re-cut at 2.4x to 8x (LANCZOS), the cursive cells also with a slant correction that stands the writing upright, and the certificate block was read in four pieces. Entries 7 to 10 are in one hurried, strongly right-slanted hand (the clerk's copy). Table rows follow the form: the first line of each cell belongs to the first person named (the groom), the second line to the second person (the bride); a slash marks a line break inside a cell. Printed words are in roman; in the certificate the handwritten fill-ins are in bold. proofed_by: claude-opus-5-5, 2026-10-04 --- # Marriages solemnized at the Roman Catholic Chapel, Registrar's District of Kilcatherine, 1865: entries 7 to 10 **Superintendent Registrar's District of** Castletown **Page** 4[?]5 [handwritten] / 41 [stamped, bold, directly below] 08263215 [printed at the top of the sheet] ## Entry 7 **18**65.
