I believe the information you have is correct regarding Thomas Ligon. He was not a young man when sent to Jamestown to oversee his newly acquired estate. He was 55 years old when arriving to north america. At that time it was not uncommon for a man of his age and status to marry a younger woman. She was 23 years old at the time of marriage, not young by the standards of the 1600's.
