History of the Millville Fire Department

It all began soon after Millville became a township in 1801 when the Millville Union Fire Company was incorporated on February 16th, 1832. Years later on July 18, 1872, the Mulford and Reeves lumberyard fire started a sequence of events that led the local newspaper to print on April 30, 1880, an article that stated the need for an organized fire company. Two weeks later on May 14th, 1880, the Resolution Hose Co. No. 3. was formed and ultimately the Millville Fire Department.
