The Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen was founded on December 1, 1873 in Port Jervis,
New York by Erie Railroad firemen in order to provide mutual support for railroad
firemen. Their first convention was in 1874, at which they adopted their first constitution.
The Brotherhood initially emphasized insurance, but by the late nineteenth century
had branched out into labor-management relations.
In 1907, the organization changed its name to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen [BLF&E], reflecting the changes in its membership as former firemen
were promoted to engineers and permitting locomotive engineers to join its ranks.
In 1969, the union merged with the Order of Railway Conductors and Brakemen, the Brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen, and the Switchmen's Union of North America to form the United
Transportation Union [UTU].
Lodge 807 of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, now defunct, was
located in Auburn, New York. It was composed of employees of the Lehigh Valley Railroad
Company [LVRR] working on the Lehigh Valley, Auburn, Cortland, and Auburn-Ithaca branches.
These employees were represented by Lodge 807 until its dissolution in 1966 at which
point they were represented by Lodge 379, located in Sayre, Pennsylvania. After the
merger of the railroad brotherhoods, they were represented by UTU Local 810. Finally,
in the 1970s, the operating employees joined the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
[BLE], Division 380.
Inclusive date range: 1911-1988
Bulk dates: 1959-1979
This collection consists of the files of William J. McLane, Local Chairman of BLFE
Lodge 807 (Auburn, NY), Local Chairman of UTU Local 810 (Sayre, PA), and finally Local
Chairman of BLE Division 380 (Sayre, PA) for the Auburn and Cortland, New York area
employees of the Lehigh Valley Railroad. It primarily documents the history of Lodge
807, but its files also document the transitions its members went through during the
downsizing and consolidation of both the carriers and of the operating brotherhoods.
The records in this collection amply document the effects union consolidations and
mergers had on the general membership.
The collection contains historical records from the founding of Lodge 807, including
documentation of the founding of a new Lodge, the transfer of existing BLFE members
from other Lodges into the newly formed Auburn, New York Lodge, the applications of
Lehigh Valley Railroad Company [LVRR] Auburn Division to join Lodge 807, and correspondence
with the Grand Lodge for guidance. Membership lists are attached to these pieces of
correspondence. Of particular interest is a Ritual Book from 1945, offering instruction
to members on how all ceremonies were to be performed in the Lodge.
This collection contains extensive records on the daily operations of a BLFE Lodge
from the first half of the 20th century. Financial filings from 1958-1967 and the
financial secretary's cashbook from 1937-1967 offer an in depth view of the Lodge's
activities as well as complete membership rosters, and in the cases of insurance plans,
the member's family and next of kin. These records, along with the seniority rosters
for the railroad facilities, make this a rich resource for genealogists.
This collection also contains numerous case files resulting from grievances file
by employees. The case files are instructive in that there are both those cases settled
at the local level as well as cases that had to be forwarded to the sitting general
chairman of the Grievance Committee to be further addressed. The correspondence that
resulted from these cases extensively documents the relations between members at various
levels in the BLFE's hierarchy.
This collection also documents the effect the crew consist dispute and the final
decision of Arbitration Board No. 282 had on firemen and engineers.
Finally, this collection contains documentation of the effects the bankruptcies and
consolidations of the carriers had on their employees and the unions that represented
them.
Access to the collections in the Kheel Center is restricted. Please contact a reference
archivist for access to these materials.
This collection must be used in keeping with the Kheel Center Information Sheet and
