* There is no Midway in Parke in 19th century gazetteers, such as the 1859 ''Shipper's Guide'', the 1854 Thomas/Baldwin, the 1880/1902 ''Lippincott's'', the 1895 Longman's, or de Colange's ''National Gazetteer''.
* The Beadle ''History'' has no such place at all, in Wabash Township or otherwise.
* The Muncie ''History'' comes up with nothing, too.
* Baker's 1995 book has only [[Midway, Spencer County, Indiana|Midway, '''Spencer''' County, Indiana]] (and [[Colfax, Indiana|Colfax]] in Clinton) as also have de Colange, Thomas/Baldwin, and the 1880 ''Lippincott'''s.
This is a name on USGS maps and thus in the GNIS, only.
It is unverifiable what it even was supposed to be.}} ~~~~ |
