On November 14, 1901, a group of concerned citizens met in the Seaford Town Council room for the purpose of discussing the organization of a fire company. By the end of the month, over 50 persons had volunteered for the fledging organization. The company was formally named the Seaford Volunteer Fire Department and was basically located at the foot of Pine Street. W. H. Miller, the freight agent at the railroad, was elected president, and E. M. Scott, the town’s blacksmith, was chosen to be the first chief.
