OK Thanks Joe

Probably another dumb question, as I have stripped one side of the
roof of shingles the paper (felt) looks OK other than the holes from the
roofing nails, after I clean up the nails and ready it for new felt is
there anything wrong with leaving the old paper up there and laying the
new felt over it? or should I just take it to bare wood? As I laid the
new felt I thought I would take out the old felt nails as I went just to
make it a little cleaner this is a roof of about 26 x 22 feet (my junk
shop). I sort of thought it might save time? But then since I don't
know for sure figured I could ask! Thanks again Joe for the speedy
response. At 65 I am no longer as agile as I used to be but here in
Florida roofing crews are way behind and will be lucky to get a roofer
in 2 years.

If you get a leak (Heaven forbid) you don't want the water to run under the
drip edge and down the fascia. So lay the felt over the drip edge the easy way
and nobody's going to see it anyway.
And be careful up there. Good luck.
