I think it says "Daughter an orphan"
Never seen that on a cert before.

Karon, if you have a scanner, scan the certificate and upload it to a photosharing site like photobucket or flickr.com, then post the address of the page where you've put the photo on this thread.

Did you mean marriage certificate? I have never come across illegitimate, base born etc. being on a marriage certificate. It wouldn't be necessary to put that.
