The Cook Memorial Presbystian Chapel Cemetery is located in the Bromley community in Baldwin County.  From Bay Minette, travel southwest on Highway 138 (also called Hurricane Road) some six miles until you reach the intersection of Highway 138 and Highway 225. Turn left on Highway 225 and travel some 6 miles until you see the Cook Memorial Presbystian Chapel .It is a old white building.The cemetery is right beside the church.

 

As far as I can tell the oldest marked grave is that of James A. Rider in 1967. The majority of the surnames buried in the cemetery are Rider, mostly Mr. Rider’s descendants.
