Do you read this surname as Sohn?
My ancestor's sister remarried after her first husband died and the second husband's surname is one I haven't seen in this town: it looks like 'Sohn' but I want to confirm whether others with more experience also see it that way: see the circled bits where the name is cited for the groom and his father, and their signatures. Below that is what appears to be the birth record for their first-born 9 months later. Thanks! Tom

Not to worry -- digging around some more, I have found evidence for a Sohn family in Oberhoffen-sur-Moder, so confirming I am reading it right. Please consider this resolved.
