In these records the marriage date is usually at the beginning (26 Nov 1699). A few have this added

The marriage date is definitely the one at the top (Nov 26, 1699).
The event to wich the date at the bottom refers to is unclear - there is an unreadable word after the date (maybe "recognitus" in latin).
If the same date is found in other docs on the same register, it may refer to a "check" done by a clerk priest during a "visita pastorale" of the bishop to ensure all procedures were followed properly.
Do you have another examples of this added date?

Thank-you for your help. The phrase is receperant beneditiones sacerdotalem which Google translates as receiving a priestly blessing. Many of the added dates I'm finding are for the 1st few months of 1702 but not all. Your idea about a "check" makes sense. I'll attach a few more examples.

I'm sorry it will only let me upload text files right now.

Diane,
it looks like the FS blog is experiencing some technical issues preventing pics upload.
If you want, you can send me the link to the additional docs, or, alternatively you could send by mail to: psventur@tiscali.it
It's the first time I see this topic, and I am interested learning more about it.
Ciao
Paolo
