About this map

Ariel and Berwick anchor this Amite County landscape, defined by a dense network of family-named cemeteries and rural intersections. The map reveals a settlement pattern where small communities like Olio and Capell are surrounded by burial grounds such as Bethany Cem, Smiley Cem, and Rose Hill Cem, providing significant data for genealogical research.

Drainage systems like Mill Cr, Beaver Cr, and Seabury Cr divide the terrain, which is accessible via a web of local roads including Kahnville Rd and Berwick Cassels Rd. The concentration of distinct family markers, including the William Jackson Cem and Dunn-Hefner Cem, suggests a deeply rooted local history where land ownership and community life have long been tied to specific family lineages and small rural congregations.
