On September 22, 1937, she married Franklin Henry Lindeman at Concordia Lutheran Church. The couple moved to Franklin''s home farm near Conger, MN, where they raised five children and farmed 160 acres. Muriel helped on the farm while being an active member of their Conger St. Paul''s Lutheran Church, where the couple were charter members.

Muriel and Ben kept both of their homes, his in Red Wing, and Muriel''s in Albert Lea, traveling back and forth between the two so they could continue to stay involved in their friends'' and relatives'' lives, as well as the activities and volunteer work they had been active in prior to their marriage.
