This town............Is home for me.Everyone has one and has stories but I can sit here and honestly say if there was truely one place I could live and raise my children would be this town.Everything about this town is perfect in my eyes.But I do have a question for anyone to answer.There was this store right across the street from the part next to the tracks.The building even back then as early as I can remember back in 75 was shut down.The outer walls look like tin.I never knew the name of that building.I think it was some type of store at some point.

The picture of the water front fish house is where my father William James Minor lost his left arm working as a boy.

Hi, My sister sent me your album of Berwick. I was born and raised in Berwick. You have some great pictures. Most are from way before I was born. Is your Dad, Doyle? If so, he was friends with my Dad. Do you have any more photos of Berwick or Morgan City from the 1940's? My e-mail is glyndupont@atvci.net. I really enjoyed going through you album.
