Description

Ketubba. Dated: 9 Tammuz 2191 Seleucid = 18 June 1880 CE. Groom: Yos[ef] b. Sulayman b. Avraham al-Sabari. Bride: Ghina bt. Y[.]ya b. Yahya [...] al-Sabari, a widow. Merits further examination. The names and place names are likely fully decipherable. Probably Yemeni. Bears at least a superficial resemblance to Mosseri VII.19 (an 1899 Yemeni ketubba), see edition by Amir Ashur and Ben Outhwaite, "A Jewish marriage deed from nineteenth-century Yemen."
