Translation help on marriage
Suggested to be a marriage between Martin Gottlieb Ketelhut & Caroline Henriette Shwuchow. Names, dates, places? After 1891 immigration, their children's US marriage & death recs had various spellings of Shwuchow, but also a couple with Caroline "Zilske". I'm wondering if Caroline was previously married, with Shwuchow/Zilske being maiden & former married names, and if there's any evidence here. Thank you!

The bride is the unmarried Caroline Henriette Schwuchow; the name "Zilske" is never mentioned in this record.
Here is the full translation:
