The Qumran (Dead Sea Scrolls) documents contain NO Christian specific scripture...the Essenes were Jewish.
Johnny, the view you present is the Gnostic take, which has many supporters, but there is not a public record of a marriage to Mary. She isn't even really a character in the first three Gospels to be written...the traditions that focus on her are late comers to the scriptural scene. It's hard, academically, to assert that that tradition is more reflective of the real events of Jesus' life.
