POSTED WRITTEN RECORDS OF BARNSTABLE FIRE DEPARTMENT'S
FIRST YEARS The Barnstable Fire District was the 4th independent fire district to form within the Town of Barnstable. Enabling legislation was filed and approved by the state in May 1927. Apparently however, no formal organization of a fire department took place at that time. In April 1935, the Blue Wheel Tavern, a large historic Inn in Barnstable burned to the ground in a spectacular and devastating fire. Soon after the fire, the Barnstable Fire Department was established in April 1935. Land donated by Alfred Crocker, on Main Street in the center of the village became the site of Barnstable's fire house which was built by local fire department members. A Buick chassis was turned into a small fire engine including a tank, pump, hose, and equipment. This truck was built locally as well. In addition, a 1935 Mack 500 gpm pumper was ordered and soon in service as Barnstable's Engine 1. The Mack remained in service until 1965. The Mack never had a radio installed but did carry a large portable radio for a number of years. It was retired and maintained and is still in running condition today for parades. Ray Neil became Barnstable's first Fire Chief. Kenneth Greene and Dada Holmes were assistant chiefs.
In July 1989,
Barnstable Fire Department began staffing its station 24 hours a day with 2
personnel on duty supported by off duty and call personnel. In 1992 shift
strength increased to 3 per shift and in 2004 staffing was increased to 4 per
shift. In 2000
Barnstable FD began renovations and an addition to the fire station, making
additional living quarters, office space, and re-configured apparatus
bays.
