I am trying to find any Cockaynes from either Staffordshire or Rossington, Doncaster area. My great grandfather was Henry John Henson Cockayne and he was born in Cannock Wood, Staffs. Please contact me if he is part of your tree too.

Don't have much information I'm afraid, but My Auntie married Joseph H Cockayne in Wolverhampton in 1939.
They had a son in 1940 called Joseph A Cockayne and then twins in 1945 called David and Kenneth.
Sadly Kenneth died shortly afterwards.
I'm not sure whether they had any more children or where Joseph or David are now.Good Luck - Annie
