Seffner's post office was opened in 1884, after the existence of the new railroad was a certainty. Actually, the community had existed at least for several years as "Lenna City," while the railroad was being built. The community is named for its first postmaster, F.P. Seffner. Seffner, Mango and Dover were the three principal towns along the South Florida Railroad right-of-way between Tampa and Plant City. They owe their existence and prosperity to the railroad. Each became an important shipping center and Seffner was the fourth largest town in the county by 1925. After the Second World War, agricultural techniques changed and a more car-oriented society preferred to live in the fashionable popular developing neighborhoods in Tampa. The era of the small farmer passed. As the network of hard-surfaced roads expanded, the flexibility of shipping by truck rather than rail marked the beginning of the end of railroad dependence and with it Seffner's, as well as most of the other rural community's, raison e'etre. |
