Danish term or phrase: ...efter Forevisning af Dobe- eller i alt Fald Vielsesattest eller ved Eftersyn.
Also from a parish register dating 1915-1920. The full sentence reads:

Foraeldrenes fulde Navn efter Forevisning af Dobe- eller i alt Fald vielsesattest eller ved Eftersyn i Kirkebogen...

I have: "Parents’ full names as per the baptismal or, in all cases, marriage certificate, or after examination of the parish register..." Does anyone have a more elegant solution?

Many thanks in advance!
