January 9, 1839, in Wilcox County, AL.
I found this yesterday when idly checking some marriage dates at FamilySearch.org. The names on the license were William Pope and Eleanor Edin.
The reason that they were married in Wilcox County is that James A. Edins, Zilpha Eleanor's father, moved the family there between 1819 and 1822. That was just about the time between the births of Sarah Edins (born SC about 1819), Hiram E. Edins (born SC or AL about 1821) and Rebecca Ann (born probably AL about 1822).
More checking to do to see if I can find Zilpha and William between 1839 when they got married, and 1849, when Ellender Pope married Francis M. Freeman.
