early 20's
The average age at first marriage for women in New England is in their late 20's. For the US as a whole it is about 27 and the New England states are pretty much in line with that as a group. There is some variation from state to state of course - but not much.
New England Women's Club was created in 1868.
Not entirely certain but Samuel de Champlain (founder of Quebec) and `discoverer' of Lake Champlain) married 12 year old Helene Boulle on 30th December 1610 in Paris - then returning with her to America - though the terms of the marriage were that it should not be consumated until Helene's 14th birthday. That may suggest 14 as a marriageable age of the period

In the Southern colonies, women had limited legal rights, primarily focused on marriage and property ownership, with many being expected to manage households and plantations. In contrast, women in New England colonies experienced slightly more legal autonomy, as they could own property and engage in business, though societal norms still emphasized their roles as wives and mothers. Both regions restricted women's rights compared to men, but New England's Puritan influence allowed for some degree of legal recognition and involvement in community affairs. Overall, while women in both colonies faced significant restrictions, New England offered a somewhat broader scope of legal rights.
One way that women contributed to New England communities was by preparing food for their families. Another way the women contributed to New England communities was by using churns to turn cream into butter, drying and preserving fruits, pickled cabbages, and other vegetables from the garden.
