This is Margaret in the late 1930's, probably in a school photo.



All six of the Born children gathered on the farm once again, I think in 1982 for their mother Amanda's funeral. It is the only occasion I can think of when my father, who would have had to come from Kansas, and my Uncle Harold, who would have had to come from Louisiana, would have been back at the farm at the same time. Here they are in order of youngest to oldest from left to right: Margaret, Clarence, Vernie, Marie, Eugene, and Harold.
