Hi! This is apparently the marriage record of my great-great-grandparents, Leib and Leah Kroll. I would love a full translation, please, as you never know what little bits of information might give clues to other pieces of the genealogical puzzle!

Also, I noticed that the transcribed database entries sometimes give the name as "Kro'll," with the apostrophe mark. Any insight into what that means?

Thank you!
