Ayin-Bet=Akeret Bait= Housekeeper

I'm sure of this, it's also written in my marriage certificate.
The Ayin-He I don't know (yet)

The Ayin-He is probably "Aleya-Hashalom", meaning the mother died already, the translation for that would be "may he rest in peace", but that might not fit for a translation of the certificate. Maybe just "deceased".
