His name suggests a link with St.Marguerite, a Christian figure often associated with medieval or rural churches, but no source confirms this hypothesis for this specific case.

In the villages of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, parish churches like Sainte-Marguerite traditionally played a central role in community life. They served as places of worship, gathering for local holidays, and sometimes as places of refuge or storage in times of crisis. Their architecture often reflected the resources and know-how available locally, integrating materials such as limestone or wood from surrounding forests.
