Romania Metrical Records-Help

Cheryl Kitzan

Hi, I am new to the group. I have unlocked a brick wall in my family research and was fortunate to find records in the Greek Orthodox Metrical records for Tovtry, Ukraine (then Romania). I discovered my great grandparents marriage record from 1896 which of course provided the house number. I have made some attempts to translate records based on that record but I need some help. The record headings are in German and Romanian and I think the script is Romanian in Cyrillic. I would sure appreciate some help with the translations. (note the birth record has a link for the first and second page)

Thank you kindly for the heading translations! I had attempted the handwriting translation (included as attachment in original post) as best I could but have some gaps and maybe mistakes. Is this something I could get help with?
