A marriage with a step-parent or parent-in-law is forbidden in Delaware, Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, and Washington; apparently also in Pennsylvania. In the latter state marriages within the degrees of affinity, forbidden by the act of March 31, Laws (1860), 394, were legalized by the act of April 6, 1868; Laws of the Gen. Assem., 67; or the same in Pepper and Lewis, Digest (1896), II, 2884.
