Photo of Monkman's corner store, a landmark in Cookstown. Originally run as Chantler's store on the site of a log frame store run by Christopher Cooke, T.E. (Thomas) Monkman eventually purchased the building from Jake Wilcox in 1919. It then passed on to his son Louis, and later his son Donald. Monkman's provided groceries and hardware until 1962 when the property was sold.
