The beginning years for the company brought many obstacles. By 1925, Roslyn Fire Company had been running fire alarms for the past couple of years. It was not until May 25 of that year that Abington Township recognized Roslyn as actual company.

After partial recognition from the township the company organized a Fire Police Unit in July of the same year, which would be under the direction of Captain Stein.
As the company clearly had reached the necessary elements of a complete fire company, Abington Township eventually offers Roslyn a part in in the Abington Township Firemen’s Relief Association. Over the next years, Roslyn expanded with purchases of two more lots and the purchase of a Hahn 500 gallon pumper to replace the Brockway, bought on February 2, 1926 for $5,300.00.

As the company progressed the first approved fire district was given to Roslyn and the need for yet another apparatus, shortly after,

came in 1929 with the purchase of a Hahn 350 gallon pumper per minute.

With the two new trucks, this also meant new equipment, and places to store these utilities which led to the erection of a hose tower on March 10, 1933.
