Welcome to Midway ...So far, we found very little information about Midway. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Midway to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information.

While we don't have the exact location of Midway , we believe that it would have been located within present day Lea County<2>.
