“The German home of this Palatine family was at 5419 Freirachdorf (22 km. n.e. of Neuwied).”[1]

30 July 1702 Niclaus Hess married Veronica Catharina (Unknown).

”...a notation in the chbk. mentioned that the couple had lived together a long time previous to their marriage in whoring and had an illegitimate child...”[1]

It says they "lived together... in whoring." While I suppose there could have been prostitution, it's also possible they simply lived together without being married.
What does "marriage in whoring" mean? Prostitution?
