What does this say? My boss handed me this as a person to call.
Edit: He’s an idiot. He handed me the paper he was doing a pen test on, he handed me the right paper and it wasn’t even cursive. Lmfao.

The National Archives is looking for volunteers who can help transcribe and organize its many handwritten records: The goal of the Citizen Archivist program is to help “unlock history” by making digital documents more accessible.
Been doing this for a month and it’s fascinating! You click on a topic that interests you and it takes you right to those historical records in the Catalog. Tagging and transcribing makes these records more accessible to everyone. New missions are added and updated regularly, so check back often to see what’s new.

The cursive is a passive aggressive dig, from my f*cking hilarious (91 year old) boss, at a coworker for an unnecessary remark she left. I can read most of it except for the last few words… For context, the beginning reads: “neatness must always overcome your OCD and the tendency to always get _______.”
Over worried? Ray? Ones wrong? Right? Nothing makes sense to me.
HELP it’s killing me 🤣

I need help deciphering the two lines marked with yellow. The words before and after say "I said good night but it wasn't XXXX XXXX XXXX it seemed the Comm. Officer called me to report noon losses."
It's from the diary of a U.S. naval officer in London in 1941.
Thanks.

I can read most of it but I’m lost after the first sentence of the second paragraph. “Both the size and something of the houses have been most gratifying” Then Im lost up until the “we hope you like it come March 24th” Can any of you decipher it?

I am hoping someone might have a better idea than my sister and I about what is written on the back of this photo. It's our only lead (and I understand it may be a dead end) to figuring out who the photograph depicts. The photo appears to have been taken in the early 20th century and is of a teenage girl wearing an Edwardian dress (not sure if that context helps). Appreciate any help deciphering this!

I recently came across my great uncle’s death certificate and would appreciate some help deciphering his COD. He died at 17 months old and according to my grandpa (his younger brother) he may have suffered from hydrocephalus or perhaps some sort of tumor in his ear. Anything you can decipher is appreciated!

Pictures 1 and 2 are the same letter, and 3 and 4 are also together. If you don't know french... maybe if you could just make out the words and names, then I could put it through a translator?
