Title: Deciphering help needed for marriage entry please
Post by: Rose on Thursday 06 February 14 20:15 GMT (UK)
On irishgenealogyie I have found a marriage record for Eugenious (Owen) McMahon and Honora Brady on 11th April 1878 at St Mary's Pro Cathedral.

In the final column is written a comment, part of which is Spons.... .................. Junctis/junctus.

Any ideas please?

Sponsus antea junctus

The groom (was) married before, i.e. a widower.
