Read with great interest your post regarding the founding of the Taylor, PA fire department. The Swiss names are familiar to me, especially those of my grandfather and uncle, both named Melchior Flühmann. Melchior, the elder, along with his wife (Anna Otth Linder) and five of their nine children immigrated to USA in 1882 and settled in Ridgway, PA joining with others who came to this country from the village of Brienzwiler.
