I have an photo of a computer showing a scan of a marriage register for the household shown in this answer which is also written in German using Kurrent style of cursive:

enter image description here

I'd like to know what the first and second line's marriage information is.

For the first marriage, I see it is 2nd day of perhaps February in 1837. Bride is Marija Gregorzhizh, age 36, who appears to be sister to groom on second line. Groom is Anton Ob...., age 31, lives in Klein Zirnik 14 (Slovenian is Mali Cirnik 14).

For the second marriage, I see it is 5th day of some month in 1837, perhaps the prior line is for month of February. Groom lives in Klein Zirnik house number 12. Groom's name is Joseph Gregorzhizh, age 35, which translates to Slovenian name Joseph Gregorčič. Bride is Maria Jurglizh, age 31, who lives in Preflef jc 2 (not sure what town that is, but house number is 2).

All four getting married are Catholic faith.

In particular, I'm very interested in the names of the parent's of each bride and groom and the names of the witnesses of each marriage. I think the Gregorčič parents might be Anton Gregorčič and wife Ursula, however, the document looks more like Joseph and Maria, so maybe Joseph and Anton are brothers or cousins?

A later generation marriage transcription, that helps decoding the column headings, is shown in this image with both Slovenian and Latin words:

  • Since this is a very recent document, I hope you exchanged the names in the form, and I strongly suggest that you cover up that offical's signature and the stamp. Please don't publish unique signatures, dates and real persons' names on the web, it just invites abuse.

Notes
1) 1837 implied after 1st entry, as entries chronological
2) Pop = Father (title)
3) Hübler (abbreviated h.) (Ganzhübler, 1/2 or Halb-, 1/3 ...) - a cottager, with distinctions on how large a property he had: a full or whole parcel, one-half or one-third. Derived from Hube or Hufe, a measure of area.
4) documentation column references an official license or permission

Surnames are tough to transcribe when there are few examples of a particular name.
