Marriages were sometimes arranged in the United States in the early 20th Century. Men who moved out West wanted to have wives so they looked in newspapers for singles' ads or posted singles' ads. Women would then come to the West to meet the man and get married. This was once known as "mail order brides".

Yes, arranged marriages were practiced in the 1920s in America and are still practiced today among some faiths. Orthodox Jews and even the Amish sometimes practice arranged marriages.
