Hi Gordon, I’m wondering where you are reading that your grandfather was a founding member etc? I don’t know the answer but the city of Fremont was formed in late 1950s from most of the towns that were Washington Township so I doubt that FM stood for that if what you are reading refers to a time before 1960. My father lived in Centerville which eventually became part of Fremont and had a policy from SES. I know I had to contact the organization located in San Jose in order to collect on the policy when he died.
Doesn’t answer your question, but I wouldn’t guess that it stands for Fremont. Maybe Fraternal Men’s? Even tho I have never seen that tagged on?
