Number 27. Dated in Máramaros-Sziget, 25 February 1902.
Groom: Dániel Salamon, Jewish, grocer, residence Nagyszöllős, birthplace Mátyfalva, 10 March 1873, who verified his identity with his marriage documents
Father: Ábrahám Salamon, smallholder, residence Mátyfalva
Mother: Mrs. Ábrahám Salamon born Netti Hollender, residence Mátyfalva
Bride: Beila (Berta) Schimmer, Jewish, residence and birthplace Máramaros-Sziget, 15 April 1884, who verified her identity with her marriage documents
Father: the late Leopold Schimmer, felt merchant, residence ??cichenberg
Mother: widow Mrs. Leopold Schimmer born Chaje ?idcz, residence Máramaros-Sziget

The groom's occupation is written as a mashup of _fűszeres_, which is literally "with spices" but is also one of the ways to say "grocer", plus the redundant _kereskedő_ "merchant". It gave me a laugh: "spicy merchant".

No, I don't know what sort of marriage documents they had, given that they were just now getting married.

I've gotten nowhere with the bride's father's residence, possibly because I don't even know what country to look in. (JG's town finder offers Reichenberg, but whatever that starting letter is, it's not an R. I'm pretty sure it's a C.)

In isolation, I'd guess D for the first letter of the bride's mother's surname, but it's nothing like the D in Daniel. Maybe V? Or O? None of them make a name I recognize....
