If you are a certified Notary of North Carolina can they marry a couple in South Carolina?

Section 10-1-20 of Title 20 of the South Carolina Code of Laws states as follows:SECTION 20-1-20. Persons who may perform marriage ceremony.Only ministers of the Gospel, Jewish rabbis, officers authorized to administer oaths in this State, and the chief or spiritual leader of a Native American Indian entity recognized by the South Carolina Commission for Minority Affairs pursuant to Section 1-31-40 are authorized to administer a marriage ceremony in this State.A notary public is an official of the State (and usually county) where licensed. Hence unless the North Caroline Notary is also a minister, rabbi, other kind of officer authorized in South Carolina, recognized Native American tribal or spiritual leader, the answer appears to be "NO."
