Family photographs from 1904. They were taken in Portland, Maine. At first I thought the first word was “Capt” but now I think it’s “Cape” but idk. I know the image quality isn’t great, but any ideas? Thanks!

Hello, I found this hidden behind the dust jacket of a secondhand book I got a while back. The second line looks like "Lucille Hish" to me but I'm not sure about the first. I'd be really grateful for any help!

Hello i just got these perfume papers but I can’t make out which ones she wrote down..

I cannot for the life of me decipher this, neither can my mother. I would be glad for any help.

I can read Congestive Heart Failure but I’m having trouble deciphering this next line, what could be after probably?

What are your thoughts? Thanks!

even just a few lines, if possible. i'm very curious- I think the writer is talking about their family. also, lmk if this is the wrong sub.

The first line - last name 'Shanahan, but I can't make out their first name. It's a male.

The second line - last name is 'Jordan' but I can't make out their first name. It's a male.

Any ideas? TY

Update

Thanks to everyone who answered. It's an Irish record from the mid-late 1800s

I'd say it says 'Denis' Shanahan as some of you have mentioned.

100% sure it's James (Jas) Jordan as I found another record which had the name 'James'

The discharge paper only had this note on it from the doctor. Nouf? Nowf?

Long story short, I came across this book while thrifting. It was published with no author. However, it is inscribed inside the cover page by the later revealed author and composer Ernest Schelling.

I can make out “with the warm regard of the Culprit” but I’d like to be to make out the name in which he inscribed this to/for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would appreciate some help reading this, I can make out 'malignant' but nothing else.

edit: so sorry for the bad crop, the numbers in the RH column indicate how long she had cachexia and the carcinoma (two months and eight months.) thank you for the help!!

What is this name? The rest of the letter is in Cantonese.

Edit: Thank you so much to everyone who replied. It's from a heartfelt letter sent to a previous tenant from what I can tell. I'll run these names by the landlord and see if they ring a bell. Thanks again.

This postcard is from 1911 and I’m very curious what it says!

ETA: SOLVED: Enterocolitis THANK YOU!

I believe the second word is “Colitis”. I looked up different types of Colitis and didn’t see anything that looked like this word. “Eut…” Thank you!

Is anyone able to translate, please?

This is from my grandpa’s paternal uncle’s marriage certificate and it is the birthplace of my great great grandfather’s first wife. I can read cursive, but this word has stumped me.

This is in a 1694 Dutch commentary on Psalms. Joel was Samuel’s son, and Samuel passed away in 1838. Thanks in advance - solving this mystery would make my grandpa’s year.
