Came across this great site tracing the history of FDNY:

Rather than start a new thread I found this old one - here is a history of the FDNY from wilkipedia.  There is a lot of information there you might find interesting.

Caution:  Information posted on wilkepedia is not always accurate - therefore "caveat emptor"
