I have a firemen as you described too. Great idea to find licensure! My guy started his Fireman career in the Navy - could your guys have been in the Navy too? I found this information on the 1865 NY Census - there was a column toward the right for military, which was checked. Then I had to turn to another page to find expanded info, which included his ship and his approx muster in and out dates. I was able to find his widow's pension file which was a goldmine! Good luck.

Mike, Thanks for the suggestion and yes I have checked that site.  Unfortunately it applies to the traditional "Hook and Ladder" type Fireman and not my "Man who tended the Fire" ancestor.   Catherine >________________________________ > From: "gc-gateway@rootsweb.com" <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> >To: NYKINGS-L@rootsweb.com >Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2013 4:39 AM >Subject: Re: [NYKINGS] Help with a Fireman License > > >This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > >Author: mikepowers9 >Surnames: HARDER >Classification: queries > >Message Board URL: > >http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.kings/16659.1/mb.ashx > >Message Board Post: > >Have you checked out all the info and names in Brooklyn genealogy on the Fireman pages? > >http://www.bklyn-genealogy-info.com/Fire/index.html > >Mike Powers > >Important Note: >The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Author: poohdooh1 Surnames: Harder Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.kings/16659/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My GG-GF Henry Hrader, and his brother Charles Harder were both "Firemen" in Brooklyn from 1870's through early 1900's. I contacted the NYFD to see if they had any records. I found out they were not actual Firemen, as we know them today. Instead they were "in charge of the fires on board steamships or locomotives". Both my ancestors worked on the Ferry, listed on various census as Ferry Fireman and Engineer. I was also told they had to be issued a license to perform their duties. My question is what Type of License or record set would I be looking for, and who would I contact to inquire about such a license? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
