The Fireward Society of Dorchester and Milton was founded in 1793
to protect citizens on both sides of the Neponset River. In 1830,
both towns recognized Fountain Engine No. 1 as their main source of
fire protection in Milton Village and Lower Mills. Later the
Hydrant Engine Company was formed in East Milton, reflecting the
population growth in this area. When Milton officials recognized
that their fire department could not keep up with the growing town,
a chemical engine was purchased and installed in a new firehouse
built in the center of Milton in 1881. Soon the town acquired a
steam engine and installed it in an even larger station. Thus began
the gradual development of a professional, full-time fire
department in Milton.
