The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗Midway has a long history going back to the early days of Florida during its contact by Spanish explorers. There is a myth that has it that it was a point determined by representatives from Pensacola and St. Augustine to be Florida's capital, even though there is no point has actually been proven.
A normal school under the supervision of W. D. Scull was reportedly being established in Midway in 1867. The Florida Archives have a 1930 photograph of Florida Fuller Earth's mine in Midway. In 1986, Midway was incorporated into a city by the special act of the Florida Legislature.
