Marriage record translation request (Wrage and Reese)

JoanCuster

This is the marriage record of Martin Wrage and Catherine Reese (13 Mar 1875).

I think Catherine may be my great-grandmother, who divorced Martin Wrage.

If I could get this record translated to see if her parents are named, and other information in the record, I would really appreciate your help.

I have attached record as well as pasting a copy here.

Thanks so much Ulrich. This is so helpful.

Am I interpreting this correctly - the first is the marriage information and the comments on the left are reference to a divorce? If so, do you know if this is typical for how divorces are recorded - in the marriage record?

Were there any comments on 2nd page have anything that is also worthwhile to know?

Thank you again!

Hello Joan,

I have seen a few times a divorce annoted on a marriage record. This is not the original divorce record (which is kept at the civil court), but just an additional note by the registrar so that he is aware that this marriage is no longer existing.

The second page will contain the rest of the info on the second witness, some general remarks and the signatures of the spouses and the witnesses.

Thanks so much for the insight. Very helpful.

This now means that my great-grandmother had another family, before my grandfather was born. More branches to his tree.
