Dear /r/askreddit,
Ran across this in a citation in a research class and wondered if anyone knew what it meant.
The name where we found the suffix is: "Cowell, Herbert, b.1836/37, barrister. M at B."
The only example usage I could come up with is as an abbreviation equivalent to "married at B(?)" as in: "William Sylvester, b. Weth., 1812; d. Berlin, Ct., 3 Sept, 1844; m. at B., 9 May 1839, Caroline..." but this seems to be usage unique to a particular volume.
Really appreciate the help!

EDIT: SOLVED. Solved. Most likely refers to the "Master at the Bench" or governor of the Middle Temple.
