Margaret, in St. Clair County, began in 1908 as a company town for the Alabama Fuel and Iron Company, which was organized in the early 1900s and developed the Margaret coal mines under its president, Henry F. DeBardeleben. The town is named for his wife, Margaret.
Margaret had its own school system under Superintendent C. C. Garrison. The town was incorporated in 1959, with F. B. Carroll as its first mayor. In 1967 Mayor Doc Mitchell organized the fire department, and in the early 1970s Mayor Johnny "Sonny" Wilson secured a water system. Late in the 20th century many families moved to Margaret, and its population grew by more than 278 percent between 2000 and 2010, leading the county school board to set up a new school system there.
