2020 Map of Welsh South
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Welsh serves as the focal point for this section of Jefferson Davis Parish, situated where the northern agricultural plains meet the intricate waterways of south Louisiana. The town's grid is dense with local history markers, including Our Lady of Seven Dolors Catholic Cem and Oaklawn Cem. This area reveals the critical intersection of transportation and the landscape, with Welsh Airport and the Ag Aviation Airport supporting the region's long-standing reliance on aerial crop management for the surrounding rice and crawfish fields. The natural drainage of East Bayou Lacassine and Bayou Chene is augmented by man-made infrastructure like the Welsh Canal, illustrating a hybrid landscape where natural bayous have been channeled to support a sophisticated irrigation and transport network.
