    For the name, you will index it as follows:

    Image 1:

    Given Name: Sophia Or Szyfra Sophia

    Surname: Wolowaskura

    image 2:

    Given Name: Sophia Or Szyfra Sophia

    Surname: Wolowaskura Shelansky

    For the spouses birthplace, you will index it as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States of America.
