    Ok, this may be wrong history but I could have sworn I saw some article a few years ago explaining that this marriage happened because it was the middle of the great depression and her parents couldn’t afford to feed her or something like that.

    Makes it worse, imo.

    That said, was he a pedo? If sex happened then obviously yes, but I thought this marriage was a charity case more so than a “indulge a pedo who’s interested in our daughter during the depression” situation…

    I’m gonna have to go find that article at some point…

    Edit: welp, I went looking for it, couldn’t find it, so everything above this line may be bullshit, but based on the age she had her first child at, yeah I’d say that obviously counts as some pedo shit

      Even if it was a charity case and he waited to fuck her until she was of age it’s still grooming. They should have lynched this motherfucker as soon as he expressed interest in marrying a 9 year old.
