translation request
I have the basic extractions from these Kuhnt marriages of my family, but many extractions don't give birthdays, vocations, witnesses, relationships. Thanks!

Hello @Jared Lee Sommer,
Translation of the first marriage record for Marie Mathilde Kuhnt:
Number 44.
Hirschberg, on the 21st of June 1880.
Before the undersigned civil registrar appeared today for the purpose of marriage:
(1) the master shoemaker Johann Karl August Fitzner, personally known, Protesant religion, born 2 August 1857 at Wohlau, residing in Hirschberg, Pfortengasse 7, son of Christiane Fitzner, residing in Wohlau.
(2) the worker Marie Mathilde Kuhnt, personally recognized, Protestant religion, born 2 March 1849 at Hartau, District Hirschberg, residing in Hirschberg, Pfortengasse 7, daughter of the late resident Johann Gottlieb Kuhnt and his late wife Rosine Friedericke, née Springer, last residing in Hirschberg.
Page 2:
Witnesses were called and appeared:
(3) the master joiner Heinrich Kuhnt, personally known, 34 years old, residing in Hirschberg, Priesterstraße 18.
(4) the baker's assistant Albert Laube, personally recognized/identified through the master joiner Heinrich Kuhnt, 23 years old, residing in Hirschberg, Gerichtsgasse? 2.
In the presence of the witnesses, the registrar asked the betrothed, one by one, the following question: whether they declare they want to marry each other. The betrothed answered this question in the affirmative and the registrar then stated that he would now, by virtue of the law, declare them to be legally married.
Read aloud, approved, and after the approval of the deletion of the word "and" in the third part [on page 1], signed:
Johann Karl August Fitzner
Marie Mathilde Fitzner, née Kuhnt.
Heinrich Kuhnt
Albert Laube.
The Civil Registrar: represented by Schlarbaum.
Certified to be in agreement with the Main Register, Hirschberg, on the 21st of June 1880.

My comment: If your other two translation requests in this post are not answered soon, I would recommend you separately post each request as a new request here in the German community.
