I have Windows Power Toys, and one of its applets is "cross hairs" which draws a vertical and a horizontal line through the cursor. With the horizontal line, I can see what's above and below what.

With the vertical line, I can more accurately determine what year an event of interest occurred. Shortcut key for crosshairs is Control Alt P (which I remember as "CAP" ).

I wish I knew how to annotate graphs - I have a limited ability in my Excel graphs. I can't find any capability for that in Imgur, or in Windows Snipping Tool.
