The overcrowding of Farmingdale School back in 1916 spurred Bromley officials to begin solving the problem by building a new school for the area, or expanding Farmingdale School. It is interesting to note that the Hamilton Fire Company hosted classrooms for the overloaded Farmingdale School.

1916: BROMLEY AND THE BROMLEY CIVIC ASSOCIATION

This page has been extracted from a weekly Trenton Times feature under the byline, "WILBUR AND EAST TRENTON." Bromley began to seriously during the first decade of the 20th century. However, the proximity of the new suburb to Trenton' Wilbur section on the west, and East Trenton to the north, the editor failed to change the byline and as a result, news from Wilbur and Bromley were grouped into the Wilbur portion of the feature. I have highlighted the main article dealing with Bromley's early Civic Association.
