Biography
E. J. Margarie was a charter member of the Juneau Men’s Igloo.
Margarie was born in England in 1870 and came to Juneau in the 1880s.
For some time, he was chief electrician for the Alaska Treadwell Gold Mining Company at Douglas. Afterwards, for 20 years, he was the manager of the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company and, for a considerable time, of the Juneau Ferry and Navigation Company, which provided boat service between Juneau and Douglas.
He left Juneau with his family in July 1917 to make his home in California. He died in early September 1930 in Oakland, California, at the age of 65.
