Midway
Once an influential center for political, economic, and religious life, the
colonial town of Midway was founded by New England Puritans in 1752.
These colonists were strongly in favor of independence from Great
Britain, and during the Revolution the church and most of the buildings in
the town were burned by the British. The church was rebuilt in 1792. Also
remaining to represent the colonial era of Midway are the historic 1756
cemetery and a segment of the historic "Old Sunbury Road" now a portion
of Georgia highway 38. The Midway Museum, a raised cottage style
house typical of those built on the coast in the 18th century, features
exhibits, documents, and furnishings commemorating 18th and early 19th
century life.
