'Common Law' marriages still do exist in that US of A. I 
once knew of a girl who, becuase she has signed her name on
a apartment lease as Mrs. so-and-so, she had to legally
divorce him a couple of years later. Of course, the judge
looked at her case and had to decide whethere 'everyone' elae
considered them 'married' and if in fact that considered
themselves as such, (more or less).
