Was scarlett o hara married?

Margaret Mitchell who authored the best selling novel, 'Gone with the Wind' and created the characters Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara, based many of the characters, settings and story lines in the novel on stories she'd heard as a little girl, about the ante-bellum south from her parents and grandparents.Rhett Butler, the blockade runner from Charleston proposes to the novels heroine, Scarlett on the day she buried her second husband, Frank Kennedy. Scarlett, the shrewd and calculating survivor of the War of Secession who reversed her fortunes during Reconstruction believed herself to be in love since the beginning of the war with Ashley Wilkes, the quixotic and weak playmate of her childhood. Scarlett ever fearful of the Yankees devastating her way of life again could not pass up the opportunity to marry Rhett who was rumored, quite rightfully to have millions of gold in deposits abroad so the Carpetbaggers and Republicans couldn't get to it married Rhett as soon as a "respectable" period of mourning had passed for Frank Kennedy which to Scarlett was six months but to the scandalized "old guard" of Atlanta society this was the final nail in Scarlett's "social grave". So Scarlett and Rhett married in New Orleans and stayed on in the creole capital of Louisiana for an extended honeymoon. On return to Atlanta, Scarlett, anxious to show off her new clothes and jewels and discuss plans for the new mansion she and Rhett were building on Peachtree Street, the venerable avenue on which the very best of Atlanta Confederate society lived were snubbed by everyone with the exception of Melanie Wilkes, Scarlett's sister-in-law through her first marriage to Melanie's brother, Charles Hamilton. Melanie was also Ashley Wilkes wife and some argue, including this writer that Melanie Wilkes was the true heroine of the greatest novel of the Twentieth century.
