The Cook Cemetery, on Windham Summit in Bradford County, is an abandoned cemetery . Maybe never officially named, and maybe only a family burial plot. It is located in the woods up behind the barn on the farm where the Cooks once lived and where George and Linda Hauser lived until recent years, presently owned by Tom Burns.
Directions: From N. Orwell, travel north on SR187 to Windham Center. Turn left on the Windham-Athens Road (S.R.1056). Turn left on to the second left hand dirt road (Cook Road T877). At present, there is no sign on that corner. Cook's farm was approximately 1 mile, on the left side of the road, presently across from a pond.
