Hello Barbara,
It is Dixie Cemetery on Find a Grave.

I am not familiar with the history of Cooksville, but from just a few
things online, I see that Jacob Cook was a very early settler of
Cooksville and the village was named after him. So there may be good
family histories for him. 

Dr. Wm P Crewe is also mentioned in connection to Cooksville and the
1837 rebellion. So he was in the area early. I also saw reference to
him in bankruptcy courts in England in 1834.  So they missed the 1841
England census.

The 1862 and 1863 marriages  of interest to you are not yet shown as
images on Ancestry so actually looking for those on microfilm might be
useful.  The indexing for the Crewe Cook marriage shows difficulty in
reading the original but the cemetery stone confirms the name as
Crewe. You do need the witnesses for the Collins Hayes marriage.

The 1871 census for Sarah Crewe Cook shows a Henry Crewe MD  staying
with her. Could be a brother of her 1st husband. He is in the 1851
census in Canada. Can't find him in 1861. Did he go back and forth to
England.
