Hello @PeterCrook3,
FYI: There is a second page to this civil marriage record which includes the witnesses, the civil marriage ceremony, and the signatures of the groom, bride, and witnesses.
Here is a translation of this first page:
Number 208.
Berlin, on the 29th of April 1887.
The following appeared before the undersigned civil registrar for the purpose of marriage:
(1) the locksmith Bernhard Reinhold Müller, recognized on the basis of his baptismal certificate, Evangelical (Protestant) religion, born on the 2nd of January 1862 at Neu Skompe, District Thorn, residing at Berlin, Moritz Strasse 8 [a street address], son of the at Neu Skompe deceased worker Friedrich Müller and his deceased wife Augusta, née Dobschinski, last residing at Culmsee, District Culm;
(2) Pauline Frühling, in service, recognized on the basis of presented documents, Jewish religion, born on the 1st of January 1865 at Gross Dammer, District Meseritz, residing at Berlin, Heidereuter Gasse 8 [a street address], daughter of the at Berlin deceased tradesman Salomon Frühling and his wife Henriette, née Frühling, residing in England, place unknown.

Hi Robert,
Thank you very much for that prompt translation. I have heard from someone else that there should be a second page to the marriage certificates but I have never found one- I download the certificates from Ancestry.com.
I have one more certificate to submit for translation.
Incidentally, do you know of any source of Jewish birth, marriage and deaths for Prussia (now Poland) other than Ancestry. I've tried JRI-Poland and exhausted their supply.
Regards,
Peter Crook

You're welcome, @PeterCrook3.
Here is a translation of the note in the upper left margin which is a reference to the death of the bride in 1942:
Number 208.
Berlin, on the 11th of February 1942.
The wife died on 24 January 1942.
Death Register no. 379/[19]42.
Civil Registration Office Berlin-Horst Wessel.
The Civil Registrar represented by: [signature].
Regarding the second page of the marriage record: When you find the first page of the marriage record on Ancestry simply move to the next image and that should be the second page of the record.
I am not familiar with Jewish genealogical sources in Prussia/Poland and cannot offer any suggestions for research.
