Its more than a century ago. More like 150 years.

My great-grandmother married my great-grandfather in 1900. She was 14; he was 21. So, it's been a little less than 150 years ago.

None of which changes the fact that a 15 year old cannot marry today; not without consent.

Nor are statutory rape charges the only charges that the OP could conceivably face.
