Rennick's index calls it a locale, which generally falls below the WP:GEOLAND bar. Topographic maps show a point with 2-4 buildings. Newspapers.com results are for various bodies of water; Gbooks results are for bodies of water and a post office in Tennessee active in the 1850s. Not seeing a WP:GNG or GEOLAND pass here.

Delete In 1882, West Fork, Allen County did not have a post office. Rennick says "West Fork (Allen) - See Halfway". Rennick thinks West Fork is so minor they redirect to somewhere else? Rennick's entry for Halfway does not mention West Fork. Maybe this article could redirect to Halfway, Allen County, Kentucky? Searching newspapers.com is a bit tricky, I found hits for West Fork of Drakes creek, in Warren County, but did not see any for Allen County. I'm just not seeing non-trivial WP:RS that there was a legally recognized place at this location. Cxbrx (talk) 02:50, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
