Cajun Coast - History of Berwick Louisiana

Berwick
The first white settler to trek through the wilderness in this area was Thomas Berwick, a surveyor from Pennsylvania who was working in Opelousas. He settled along the banks of the Atchafalaya River in the late 1700s. Today the town of Berwick is home to several seafood processing plants and numerous boat companies.
