I want to thank all that responded to my request for a translation on
ViewMate #7508. The translation was a marriage record from Odessa.

In the record for my grandparents, the town where my grandfather was from
was translated as Goschany/Goschansk/Goshan (each person translating spelled
the name differently. Is anyone familiar with this town?

There were two marriage records on the page. One was for my grandparents.
The other couple's information I would like to share with everyone.
Hopefully it will be the grandparents of someone reading this.
