The William Cook Cemetery is a medium sized cemetery located in Southeast Titus County on private lands that have belonged to the Cook Family since the original headright survey. It is surrounded by woods, has no upkeep, and the wild vegetation is wreaking havoc with the stones and monument remaining in the cemetery. Twenty eight native rock markers were counted during the survey and, most likely many others have been submerged by the natural decaying vegetation and the incursion of cattle that have access to the cemetery. One funeral home marker was found on the site. The only remaining monument has been toppled and is laying horizontal on the ground with subsequent rapid deterioration. This is a very significant cemetery because of the uniqueness of the rock cairn that dominates the cemetery.
