> 「こりゃ、むすめ、むこどのはあの三人の中のどれじゃ。」

_context: It's a father asking that to her daughter as three men approach
him._

**What I understand** :

こりゃ、むすめ is "There, daughter"  
あの三人の中のどれじゃ。 is "which one amongst these three persons?"

**What is not clear** :

むこどのは  
= むこ(husband) + どの(which) + は(topic marker) right?

I don't understand because むこ and どの are both noun if I am not mistaken but
they are connected together here, and I usually see どの as a noun or more
commonly as a **pre-noun adjectival**.

question
grammar
どのは in「むこどのは…」is beyond my comprehension
You've parsed the sentence incorrectly. -どの here is [the honorific
suffix](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/word/%E3%81%A9%E3%81%AE/), and the word
is 婿殿.
