2015 Map of Bewelcome

About this map

Homochitto National Forest occupies the northern reaches of this Amite County landscape, where the headwaters of the W Fork Waggoner Cr and Merwin Cr carve through the timberland. The small community of Bewelcome sits at a central crossroads, surrounded by a dense network of family cemeteries that speak to the area's deep genealogical roots. Settlements like White Cap, Compromise, and Enterprise are connected by a web of rural routes including Berwick Cassels Rd and Busy Corner Rd. Notable for its concentration of burial sites, the map identifies local landmarks such as Big Antioch Cem Antioch Cem, the Sweet Home Cem, and the Bryant-Harris Cem, providing a precise look at the rural settlement patterns before the mid-2010s.
