Which date is marriage date?

Post by MichaelSerchio »

Hello,

See on a document like this:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/T ... c=M9SF-MRL

Is the marriage date 20 Feb? Or was that the date of publication, and the date of marriage is 5 May?

I'm not sure what the two dates represent?

Thank you very much in advance,

Regards,
Michael

And here is the actual Publication Record dated 17 February 1876 :-)
Record #11
Left column shows publication/posting of banns on 20, 27 of Feb., and 2 March, 1876
Marriage would have been some time after the last banns.

EDIT TO ADD:
Here is the actual marriage record - dated 5 May 1876 :-)
Record #27
