Jankovic, Matylda

I thought this one was cute. It was basically a sheet of paper in the portfolio for a marriage license!

Matylda was the daughter of Jose Jankovic (from Catalina) and was getting married to Augusto Weidemann and was dated on May 19, 1913. You can't really make out the handwriting but you can see that the witness was Alberto Wiener whose profession was the military. At the bottom of the paper is a stamp labeled Juzgado Municipal Benicasi, which is the Court name I'm assuming.

The funny thing is there are 3 different versions of Jankovic's name:

Jankovic
Jaukovic
Yankovic

So there ya go!
