I am looking for information on Margaret Elizabeth Lavinia McMillan who lived in Devils Lake between 1916-1918. She was a house keeper in the John Seiberlich home. He was an undertaker. Margaret was Canadian and was about 21 or 26 yrs of age (some discrepancy in the records). She might have been there to get training in nursing at Mercy Hospital (her later profession). She gave birth to my mother on May 13, 1918 in Devils Lake. The father was John Seiberlich. My mother was put up for adoption in the Fargo Adoption Home thru the Sister of Providence. She was adopted by a couple that lived near Minot their entire lives. Margaret died in Winnipeg in 1952 and was never married to our knowledge.

Can anyone tell me if there are any resources, as a Devils Lake City Directory or hospital records, that might provide some information on Margaret McMillan and why she was in Devils Lake? This is pertinent in helping to establish if the Margaret McMillan we are researching is the right person.
