Marriage Record - is there a status of divorcee?

BottleOfSmoke · 2017-07-09 21:12:14

I ordered a marriage certificate from the U.K. The status of the woman was listed as Divorcee, the man as Bachelor. Useful to know. Suppose two Irish citizens get married in the U.K. in the 1960s. They later divorce. If either remarried in Ireland, would I see a status of Divorcee on an Irish marriage certificate?

Yes, because even though divorce wasn't legal in this country, Ireland recognises divorce under the laws of other sovereign states.
