M1 means married once. M2 means married more than once, but not how many times.

By googling

1910 census enumerator instructions

You will find all the instructions. 

113. Column 8. Whether single, married, widowed, or divorced.-Write "S" for single or unmarried persons;
"Wd" for widowed (man or woman); "D" for divorced; for married persons, inquire whether they have been
married before, and if this is the first marriage, write "M1," but if this is the second or subsequent
marriage, write "M2" (meaning married more than once).

|Listers,
|  I am trying to determine the meaning of the notation in the 
|marriage column where M1 is stated.  Does this mean married 
|once?, married the first time?, or just married. I discovered 
|this in the 1910 Cuyahoga Co., Ohio census.  Maybe it states 
|the definition somewhere but I failed to see it.  Any 
|definition or opinions would be appreciated.
|  Thanks for your time and effort.
|  Robert
