==History==
Bejucos was in Spain's [[gazetteer]]s<ref>{{cite web | title=Anuario del comercio, de la industria, de la magistratura y de la administración. 1881 | website=Biblioteca Nacional de España | url=https://hemerotecadigital.bne.es/hd/es/viewer?id=9047075f-3c7e-411c-9e1e-41a2f650e1ba&page=1587 | language=es |page=1614| access-date=4 April 2023}}</ref> until Puerto Rico was ceded by [[Spain]] in the aftermath of the [[Spanish–American War]] under the terms of the [[Treaty of Paris of 1898]] and became an [[Insular area|unincorporated territory of the United States]]. In 1899, the [[United States Department of War]] conducted a [[census]] of Puerto Rico finding that the population of Bejucos barrio was 1,257.<ref name="OfficeSanger1900">{{cite book|author1=Joseph Prentiss Sanger|author2=Henry Gannett|author3=Walter Francis Willcox|title=Informe sobre el censo de Puerto Rico, 1899, United States.
