The marriage record for Carl Robert Bossert and Pauline Mathilda Maier is the clearest and most detailed I have found. It's as if the writer wanted to convey legible information to future viewers.
We have full names of both parties. The bride's birthdate is given, which was not directly asked. Full names of both sets of parents are given: Johannes Bossert, Johanna Kukle; Friedrich Maier and Mathilda Heiss. We also get the hometowns in Germany: Remsheim and Oberenzingen, both in Württemberg. The marriage date is clarified: "July fourth (4) 1897." You don't find this often.

I attempted to find these locations on a map. My current theory is that the bride is from Oberensingen, which is now in Nürtingen in the district of Esslingen in the state of Baden-Württemberg.
The groom's location is trickier. I don't find Remsheim. On a subsequent marriage record, Robert Carl listed his birthplace as Wimsheim. This I can find, about 30 miles northwest of Oberensingen. Wimsheim is in the district of Enz in the state of Baden-Württemberg.
Wimsheim and Oberensingen are in southwest Germany near Pforzheim and Stuttgart.
