At the time of conception Joseph and Mary weren't already married, but Mary had been pledged to Joseph (Matthew 1:18). This shows Joseph's real charater as Mary being pregnant out of wedlock would have brought great disgrace to her and her family in those days. Joseph, however, was determined to take care of things quietly. This is when the two were married. It is then her learnt from the angel that Mary's pregnancy was Spirit - conceived.

No according to the Bible she was wed to Joseph but he had not consummated the marriage. She was pregnant by the Holy Spirit. He didn't get any until after Jesus was born then they had several children together. I believe she was in the bushes with some young scalawag and her parents gave her to Joseph to keep her from being stoned. They did that in those days you know. OO

If you will take time to watch the Nativity, you'll find out that Mary was engaged to Joseph when Jesus was conceived... An Angel appeared to Joseph's dream instructing him to marry Mary. If my guess is right, she was about three to four months prenant that time.

They Married before the birth that is why Mary had to go to Joseph's home town of Bethleham for the census.- the wife goes to the husbands town to be counted.

No she was married to Joseph before. She did have an extra marital affair with Gabriel who is Jesus biological father. Joseph, who was a good guy decided to raise the kid as his own.

The bible indicates that they were married prior to the birth of Jesus. The exact date is not recorded.

No, she was married to Joseph. The bible tells of Mary having to inform her husband that she was immaculately impregnated. Talk about an understanding husband!!!
