Scanned them last night. They turned out to be my mother-in-law's maternal grand-parent's marriage and birth certificates. The marriage and grand-mother's birth cert. were in very good condition and on good quality certificate paper as usual. |

A company called ‘Arrowfile” produced Ancestor folders which use non corrosive film folders. I have never tried them, haven’t anything to preserve, lucky you. |

Lucky you . I only have my original birth cert . Mum gave each of us our certs & baptism card when we married which was lovely. Mine is getting on a bit too but mum always rolled them so its not creased. |

Yay! Just had a call from my mother-in-law who says she has come across some birth and marriage certificates from her side of the family all the way back to 1870s. |
