I am not sure if I understand your question. I will rephrase it to: Should data collected on the ages of persons in a group be consider as nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio data? It is ratio. Now, let's try another question. A study finds that people with names beginning with the letter "a-k" are older than people with letters "l-z". In this case, the data collected on names in nominal data, but the ages are still ratio data.
Yes, marital status is nominal data.
No, it is not suitable for nominal data.
If you are bothering to measure it, it probably is not nominal data in your study.

Nominal level of measurement is defined as the level of measurement that classifies variables by assigning names or categories that are mutually exclusive and exhaustive. It was often called qualitative scales, and measurements made on qualitative scales were called qualitative data. Examples are gender, nationality, ethnicity, language, genre, style, biological species, and form.
