Documents from the Exempt Firemen’s Association of Flushing Financial Records: Box 111h, Folder 14: Receipts / Financial Documents 1916-1917

Detail

Date1916-1917DescriptionThe collection is a very small one and consists principally of one type of record only, financial. These records cover the years 1916-1924 (one item may be dated 1897) and for the most part are made up of receipted bills. Some of the earlier dated items have clipped to them, the check (cancelled, of course) used to pay the bill, said checks bearing the rubber stamp either "Special Fund" or "General Fund". Bills were for various services rendered or materials supplied, and include insurance bills, postal expenses, expenses connected with parades, the supplying of fuels, and the like. Besides the bills, there are two check books (marked "Special Funds”), said books containing check stubs indicating to whom and for what reason checks were made. Also included is a virtually unused receipt book used by the Treasurer of the Association to be issued for payments received from the Association's Financial Secretary. The check books measure approximately 7x8 ¼. The receipt book is 8 ½ x 3 ½.
The few miscellaneous items consist of what appears to be membership cards apparently listing hours when some firemen were available for some kind of duty. There are about 30 such cards arranged according to three engine company numbers (272, 273 and 274). Also included among these miscellaneous items is a printed copy of the Association’s by-laws, (1934); a small unused Dues Book for use by the Ladies Auxiliary; a few letters dated in 1921 regarding the adoption by the Association of a little girl "War Orphan" in France; some blank membership dues forms probably printed in the early 1950’s.
