I think it means they did not have a pre-nuptial like  what's mine is mine 
and your is yours if they divorce just like it is  today.

I've  come across an interesting "comment" in Polish marriage records, and
I'm  wondering what it means. It says that the couple "did not make  any
pre-marital agreement between them".

I'm wondering if that is a  euphemism for "not having carnal knowledge", to
use another euphemism. And  if it was, what about women who were obviously
pregnant when they married?  I'm told that it didn't appear to be an issue,
as long as they married  before the child was born.

Of course, it could mean something entirely  different.
Anyone  know?
