Do whichever is easier:

1) switch the batteries ( house and starting )
2) switch the battery cables, ie house positive and ground to the starting, 
starting positive and ground to house

If the selection of starting battery ( which is now the house battery ) starts 
the engine easily then the starting battery
needs to be checked.

If the selection of starting battery ( which is now the house battery ) does 
not start the engine and the connection
is seven volts then the wiring needs to be checked.

If both selections start the engine now you may have had a battery connection 
problem.

The starting battery is showing a little over twelve volts but at the starter 
motor it is down to just over seven. As a result the engine will not turn over 
but starts easily on the house system. Somewhere we are loosing five volts. For 
a Luddite can anyone explain where we start to find the problem? Please use 
simple terms as I did not do well in science.
