The Wauconda Township Historical Society aims to preserve the history and genealogy of Wauconda Township, located in southwestern Lake County, Illinois, which includes the communities of Wauconda, Volo, Lakemoor, Port Barrington, Lake Barrington, and the eastern part of Island Lake. In partnership, Wauconda Township maintains and leases the Andrew C. Cook House in Wauconda, while the Historical Society offers programs and events funded solely by dues and donations. The Cook House is open from May through December every year.
