Recently while doing some more research on the Burgess mentioned in this and many other old newspaper articles online, we found out that Burgess wasn't a person it was a job position. Before the Mayor was comly used Burgess was a title given to residents of a town who held full municipal rights, and later evolved to mean an elected representative or local official. So the first fire cheifs in Lewistown Pennsylvania to command major incident was our elected "Mayor" (Burgess).
