==History==
Bloomingdale was settled some time before 1850 by John Vickers, John Carney, and others. Carney was killed on April 17, 1856, by [[Seminole]]s during the [[Third Seminole War]]. Bloomingdale School was founded in 1884, which in 1897 became a teacher's institute, training an average of 54 teachers at a time from as far north as [[Gainesville, Florida|Gainesville]] and as far south as [[Miami-Dade County, Florida|Miami-Dade County]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.hillsborough.communityatlas.usf.edu/|title=Community Atlas|website=Hillsborough.communityatlas.usf.edu|access-date=31 January 2022}}</ref> In 1890 the railway was routed through Brandon, and Bloomingdale began to decline as businessmen like D.J. Galvin, who owned a feed store on the property that is now Mulrennan Middle School, moved to Brandon for access to all the benefits provided by the railroad. In 1910, the post office closed. In 1920, the school closed and the students were sent to Brandon instead. The community declined, or at best remained stable until the 1960s, when it became a [[bedroom community]] for [[Tampa, Florida|Tampa]].
