Ok, I need the time machine and a weapon, because the person who committed this worse-than-chicken-scratch needs to be taken out and shot. I mean, I can't even tell for sure if it's Tisza-Ujhely or -Ujlak, and if it's the former, he looks to have mispelled it (Ujhej) at least twice. (They're next to each other, but both had their own civil registry office. It's probably Ujhely, though, because that's where Mátyfalva was recorded.)
He definitely wrote David for the groom, who signed as Daniel.
Huszt (if I'm reading it right) was about 20 miles east of the Tisza-Uj- places, just over the border in Máramaros county.
The bride's residence is probably meant to be Mátyfalva, but that's not what it says. (There are places that went back and forth between -falu and -falva, but this doesn't appear to be one of them: it consistently appears with -falva in all of the gazetteers and maps that I looked at.)
The first witness's residence might be Tiszaujhely, or one of the half-dozen other Tisza-somethings in Ugocsa.
