About Lindsey
The first meeting to organize the Lindsey Fire Department was held in September, 1901. The three companies which were formed are as follows: Lindsey Hose Company No. 1, Lindsey Hose Company No. 2, and Lindsey Hook and Ladder Company. The company disbanded in 1909, but was reorganized in 1913. After the consolidation of Clayville and Punxsutawney Boroughs, the three aforementioned departments were combined into the Lindsey Fire Company, February 5, 1913.
