I went to find the Cook Cemetery last week. To my knowledge no one lives on the property as it was deserted when we went there. However the cemetery is a fair distance from the road and we could not get into it. We are going to go back and try again perhaps with the four wheeler. The person that took us that day took us in past the farm but we could not find a cross road but then took us back to the road and showed us where it was app. I am trying to index the cemeteries of Digby county for the Museum in Digby.
