> most of it is written in pencil which is really dim by now

I suggest you try scanning them and then using Photoshop or any other decent imaging program to bring up the text. If that doesn’t work you might try to find a professional conservator or perhaps a local library or university. If my memory serves, the pros use thermal imaging to get good recovery of the faded text. Good luck.

Thanks for the tips.

Very cool. More of the treasure trove comes to the surface.
