First suggestions that a fire company is organized in Roslyn originated among a group of men in 1921, when they watched the Weldon Fire Engine dash out onto Easton Road to answer a call. "We ought to have a fire company in Roslyn," remarked one of them; all agreed. A meeting was held on Monday evening, January 23rd, 1922 in Perry Greenspan's real estate office. Temporary officers were selected at this time to start organizing the company.

The years moved by swiftly and in 1947, we celebrated our 25th anniversary. At the same time, we replaced our 1926 and 1930 Hahn pumpers with two new Hahn pumpers; a 500 gallon per minute and 750 gallons per minute pumpers. Each apparatus cost $16,000.00.

On April 30, 1966, the company held a building dedication and apparatus housing for the two Mack pumpers purchased in 1965 and the Chevrolet panel truck purchased in 1966. The years 1966 through 1972 were devoted to normal fire department operations and preparations for the celebration of our 50th anniversary in 1972. On June 9, 1972, the company celebrated its 50th celebration in grand fashion with a parade that included 40 units in the line of march. On June 16, 1972, we held our 50th Anniversary banquet at the Treadway Fiesta Inn in Willow Grove; 360 persons attended this event.

This day, June 21, 1997, we celebrate our diamond anniversary with whom we proudly serve, the citizens of the fine township of Abington. This parade contains participants that we work aside every time the call for help is issued and those whom we are always there within spirit.
