Does Connecticut recognize common law marriages?

Answer 1

NC does not allow common-law marriage, therefore you cannot enter into a common-law marriage in the state of NC. However, if you previously lived in another state that allowed common-law marriage (very few states do), and you were considered common-law married in that state, and you then later moved to NC, NC will recognize your common-law married status.

Answer 2

No. Common law marriages were abolished in Mississippi in 1956 with the adoption of Mississippi Code 93-1-15. Further, the legislature has made it illegal for a man and woman to live together in Mississippi if they have sexual relations.ou should be cautioned that Mississippi courts will give recognition to a valid common law marriage entered into in another state. In George v. George, 389 So.2d 1389 (Miss. 1980), a Warren County couple were married and divorced in Mississippi. The man moved to Georgia and the woman subsequently joined him where they lived together for four years, moving from Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, and finally ending up back home in Mississippi. After separating, the woman filed for divorce in Mississippi. In upholding the divorce and division of property, the Mississippi Supreme Court stated: "Although common-law marriages are no longer recognized in this State,… they are recognized in Georgia… Further, if a valid common-law marriage was celebrated in Georgia, it will be recognized in this State."
