Lakewood Cemetery is the gravesite of Andrew Davidson, who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions as a Union soldier during the Civil War. A wreath is placed on his grave every Memorial Day to honor his service.
Welcome to historic Lakewood Cemetery in Cooperstown, New York. For nearly 175 years, we have sought to provide, maintain, and preserve a suitable place for the burial of the dead. There are now over 4,800 people buried or memorialized here.
We encourage you to visit our beautiful grounds on the hillside overlooking Otsego Lake. The cemetery is open during daylight hours. It has two large sections. Both are located on County Highway 31 just north of the village of Cooperstown.
