Margaret was the fifth child born to Nels Olaf and Lena Seadin. Margaret had been born with a birth defect, Spina Bifida. She was in a wheelchair her entire life.

She was a beautiful little girl with soft, blonde curls. The miners in Garnet made the wheelchair for her. The entire town rallied around her, adoring that beautiful child who sat in a wheelchair. Margaret can be seen in some of the printed postcards sold in Garnet.

Margaret beat the odds and lived to be 25 years old, passing away in 1937.

Again, Nels and Lena would bear the grief of losing another child. She was buried in the Missoula Cemetery close to her brother, Tor. Her headstone in the shape of a heart.
