And is still in existence at Michigan State University.Buchanan had its first major fire in 1862 and the fire destroyed 90% of our small town. I also have the pictures of the fireman you have it just doesn't have an exact date. I believe the picture of the firemen around 1868-70. I can give you the name and number of the Buchanan preservation Society. Peter Lyse is one the curators. I'm actually writing a book on the fire dept and since it's existence. Any other information that you might happen on please let me know. Very interesting of all the addresses you mention. I know people that live there. If there's anything I can do to help your search of family let me know.<br /> Thanks Captain Bob Blaylock Buchanan City Fire Dept. Also the Fire Dept 150 year Celebration is this year in Sept. If you get to the area please look me up.Bob Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10657392110159858063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4333078797879411990.post-46162416677694612982012-01-18T08:11:38.824-05:002012-01-18T08:11:38.824-05:00Bob - I believe the backs of all of the cards were...Bob - I believe the backs of all of the cards were blank.
