Thank you for all the responses re queries to the NYPD.
This one from "jaws" seems to be the most useful.

Hi Dennis,
I just finished a letter to the gentleman below so that he
can give me
whatever information he may have on my Daniel Cassidy. I've
heard that
it takes quite a while to receive a response, but, he WILL
respond. I
hope this helps.
Mr. Samuel L. Dash
Principal Administrative Associate

Dear Cassidy Rooters,
Re the query below re a policeman CASSIDY: I also have
some Cassidys who were
policemen (and firemen) in
NY. (And Kellihers.)

I can't help thinking that the NYPD and NYFD might be a
source for genealogical
info on their former
employees. I haven't approached the NYPD or NYFD on this
idea yet, but I'm wondering whether anyone has
already done this. Who exactly in the NYPD did they
contact?
Was the NYPD cooperative? Did the effort
yield any useful info?
