I want to thank everyone for helping me with advice on reading the latin
in the Hungarian parish records.
I have one more question:
In marriage records from 1780's:
Before the name of the bride sometimes it says VIRGO which the meaning
is obvious(virgin or young,unmarried)
VIDUA before the name of the bride signifies a widow.
But now and then, before the name of a bride, it says CORRUPTA.

Any ideas?
