What is true regarding slave marriages?

Slaves may or may not have been allowed to marry by their masters.One thing to realize is slaves were their master's property and if the master chose to he could breed his slaves as he did his other living property (e.g. animals, plants). This would not involve marriage and whether or not the slave was already "married", that slave would have to have sex with whomever the master chose to breed them with (which may be either slave or free).

In ancient Rome how did slaves become free?

Many slaves were granted their freedom when their master died as a provision in his will. I believe a slave could also buy his freedom. They were usually freed when they were around 30 (manumission) Also when their master was very pleased and very kind he would set him free. eg. if you were a kind master and you were being mugged, and a slave saves you, you might free that slave. Question of my own: How would a master show that he freed his slave??
