If you were a planters daughter, you were married before you were 22. Some girls were married when they were 13 or 14. Their way of marriage was a lot different than ours.

Women in the 1800's had to be about 15 or 16 years old. To get married. Maybe even a bit younger like 14. But that was the 1800's. This is 2012 which you have to be an adult.

What is the average height of girls of 15 years?

Since many girls have experienced puberty by age 15, and thus have experienced growth spurts already, girls of this age are usually close to their full height. Now of course, this is on average. Many girls can still grow many years after 15, and some on into their late teens. Most don't, however; and since this is the case, it would probably be close enough to assume that the average height for 15 year old girls is around or somewhat below the average height for women in general. Average height of women in the U.S. is said to be around 5'4" Since many girls have experienced puberty by age 15, and thus have experienced growth spurts already, girls of this age are usually close to their full height.
