"Exempt" Firemen
Exempt Firemen have traditionally been those firefighters who have served their community and fire company, for a specified period of time, generally seven (7) years, eighty-four (84) months. The “Exempts” and the Exempt Firemen’s Associations are different from the Local Relief Associations and the New Jersey State Firemen’s Association and have separate laws governing them. Generally a firefighter is a member of both organizations. Both require the same tour of duty which is attendance at sixty percent (60%) of all regular fires and drills. The Exempt Firefighter obtains an Exempt Certificate after seven (7) years duty from the municipality in which his/her fire company is operational and part of that fire department. This certificate is then filed with the County Clerk and entitles the firefighter to certain benefits by statute. Those in the Local Relief Associations also serve seven (7) years duty, but get a Qualifying Certificate issued by the New Jersey State Firemen’s Association. The Exempt Firefighter or their Local or State Associations receive no financial support from either the State of New Jersey or the local municipality.
November 1830: The Paterson Fire Association at their annual meeting instructed their wardens to endeavor to procure the passage of an act exempting firemen from militia and jury after serving seven years as a fireman. This is believed to be the first firemen's exemption law (not to be confused with the Paterson Firemen's Exempt Association) that was passed in New Jersey.

The project of "organizing an association of exempt firemen was talked of for many years before it became an accomplished fact. In November, 1882, the following notice appeared in the Paterson daily papers:
Notice. — To the Exempt Firemen of the City of Paterson; You are requested to attend a meeting to be held on Monday evening, November 27th, 1882, at 8 o'clock, at the engine house of the Washington Steam Fire Engine Co., No. 3, for the purpose of forming an Exempt Firemen's Association. Signed: John W. Bensen, "William Dobson, John McKiernan, William C. Martin, James I. King, Thomas Healey, Patrick Sweeney, and Will Strong. In response to this call ninety-six exempt firemen met at Engine 3's house on Prospect Street. Ex-Chief John McKiernan called the meeting to order and was elected chairman. John Johnson, of Engine 4, was elected secretary. After considerable discussion |

regarding the plan of organization, a motion to make the society a beneficial one was lost and it was agreed to form a social association. Peter Fields, Bartholomew Riley, Lambert Romaine, John W. Bensen and George W. Pollitt were appointed a committee to form a permanent organization. They reported the following names for permanent officers: John McKiernan, president; William C. Martin, vice-president; John Johnson, secretary; John W. Bensen, treasurer. A committee on by-laws was appointed, consisting of John W. Bensen. Geo. W. Pollitt, John MacDonald, David I. Turnbull and James I. King.
At the next meeting, February 7th, 1883, the committee on by-laws presented their report, which was adopted. Garret Yan Honten, Geo. W. Pollitt, Charles M. King, John Sullivan and John Spittel were elected the first board of trustees, and Joseph Buckley, John C. McBride and Philip Chapman were appointed as a standing committee.

During the month of October, 1887, a fair was held at Washington Hall, the proceeds netting $2,000. At the annual meeting held in December, 1887, it was voted to establish permanent headquarters, and Geo. W. Pollitt, John W. Bensen and John I. Spittel were appointed a committee to procure suitable rooms.
|
At a special meeting held at engine 3's house in January, 1888, the committee reported in favor of leasing the rooms on the second floor of the building No. 169 Market street. The report was adopted and the same committee was authorized to expend a sufficient amount to suitably decorate and furnish the rooms. The rooms were informally opened Wednesday, February 22, 1888, and the association was comfortably installed in its new home, which was made use of until May 1st, 1892, when the association took possession of the frame building at 18 Clark Street (corner of Clark and Smith streets), and ultimately purchased by them.

As the Volunteer department started to disband in the late 1880s a large amount of Volunteer memorabilia such as buckets, helmets (including the stovepipe types), badges, engine lamps, trumpets, presentation pieces, etc., was acquired by the Exempt Association. Some of the items can be seen on the Memorabilia pages of this web site. Of course over time the Old Laddies of the Volunteer Department died off and many of their treasures were sold to maintain the organization.
