Did the person who married the couple have a legal license in Mexical to marry others, were the couple of legal age and consent, was the marriage documented, registered and filed properly for later legal documentation, in other words was it legally recognized in Mexico, I would call the State Dept. and ask them for the particulars just to make sure, anyone could have claimed to be a Priest in Mexico in a chappel for some extra money from tourists. Who knows anymore and if may someday involve settling of an estate, it may even be worth consulting with an attorney.

well...i don't know the answer to this question, but if those two people have been living together ever since...it's considered common law marriage by now anyways....so legally...you don't need to be worried about losing the rights of a spouse (in case that's why you were asking.)

Oh dear no! My former husband and I were married there in 1956. He found out it was not legal so he made me leave and I got nothing. I tried to fight it, but was told it was no use. Luckly I found my new husband online about 4 years ago. He is a good man and takes care of me.

The common law marriage thing is true... depending on the state you live in. Not all states have common law marriage laws.
