113652 Translation - Hebrew

2/15/2026 2:23 PM This is a Ketubah - either parents or grandparents and because thier is no English scribed, I don't know which. It may be a duplicate which was needed for a second marriage (if it was my Grandad).

anyway, If at all possible, can anyone make out the script and give me a translation so I can match the document to the right person in my family tree.

thanks very much
