I posted this before, for another discussion thread. It is a summary of
State Marriage Statutes.
If you look at Arkansas, the "e" is footnoted as "(e) Younger parties may obtain license in case of pregnancy or birth of child."
Kansas and Massachusetts have a minimum age of 12, the lowest explicit age (pregancy and other factors are not age specific) of all of the states.
Nebraska has 17 with parental consent and is one of the few states on the chart with no footnotes denoting an exception or allowable extenuating circumstance.
Also, the Mann Act, a federal law, might apply in this case. It has been applied to married couples, most notbley
Jack Johnson's interracial marriage. It was also used as a tool to prosecute polygamy, whether recognized by a state or not.
