When I got married in 1976, the State of Utah recognized female marriages at 13 years old. Males had to be 16. Both required parental consent and a blood test.

I don't think it's too hard to figure out why that was the case in Utah back in '76.
Not that they were alone in that sort of thing. I believe Hawaii's age of consent was 14 until recently. I think they were attracting too much of that kind of tourism.
