I've never come across Marriage by Correspondence. But I'm shocked to find they abolished marriage by custom and repute - they kept that quiet! Another unique little quirk of Scots law wiped out, sniff!

Hello!

I am doing some digging around for rules concerning types of marriage in the British Empire in the 1870's. A Google search for British Common Law Marriage got me a Wikipedia entry that had a reference that mentions Marriage By Correspondence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_in_the_United_Kingdom#Scotlan). However, I have been unable to find any other mention of it.

Do any of you have any more information about Marriage By Correspondence?
