Maryborough Fire Brigade Board
text:
The Maryborough Fire Brigade Board of Maryborough, Queensland was the first fire brigade in Queensland, Australia, outside of the capital city of Brisbane. In the early days of settlement in Maryborough there were a number of major fires in the town. "These fires were all extremely destructive, primarily because of a lack of any efficient fire services, the lack of a good water supply and the frailty of wooden constructions." The only way to fight a fire was for men to form a bucket brigade. In
