In 1897 the family moved to northern Aitkin county which was then in the heart of the logging and lumbering industry.

Charles as a boy helped clear the wooded land of his father's homestead and while growing to manhood learned the craft of woodsman. In 1912, at the age of 18, he and his brothers formed the Megarry Brothers co-partnership which entered into the production of forest products and general merchandising in Bain, and continued in that business until 1926 when the firm entered the general construction industry of building modern highways, bridges, reclamation and flood control dams, and built and helped build numerous airports during the war period. He at various times superintended construction projects in the states of Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Montana and Arkansas. Mr. Megarry identifleld himself with Methodist church work in all communities where he lived.

His father and mother were pioneer Methodists of northern Aitkin county. After living 48 years in Aitkin county and in Aitkin, he and his family came to St. Cloud in 1945 in order to be closer to central operations of the company.
