History[]
The Village of Thedford was amalgamated with several other area municipalities to form Lambton Shores in 2001. The fire departments in Lambton Shores continued to operate independently for several years, but the Thedford FD became part of Lambton Shores Fire & Emergency Services when a new chief for the municipality was hired in 2018. Bosanquet Township formed part of the coverage area and some apparatus were lettered Thedford-Bosanquet Fire Department.
