8/20/2025 2:29 PM Looking for a translation for this and the companion scan--three pages altogether from the 1817 Kalisz marriage register (Act 6). The participants were Jonas Knopf, likely in his 20s, and Mariem Starkman, about the same age. It's lengthy I know, but I'd like to preserve as many details from the record as I can. You never know what might become valuable later on.

The record begins here and continues on the companion scan.

Many thanks.

8/20/2025 2:28 PM I am not sure what is the nature of the attached document. It was found along with other documents in an envelope which read "important documents." I believe I am able to recognize the name Anna, my second great-aunt, and her maiden name of Riskin (several mentions). Would appreciate your assistance in its translation. Thank you.
