Thank you for your helpful welcome. I'll try and summarize what I earlier sifted from various like-named possibilities in succeeding generations going back from Matthew.
Matthew Cockcroft c. 18/4/1762 Illingworth, father Joshua C.
Isaac C. c. 30/1/1759 Illingworth, father Joshua C — Isaac was brother of Matthew?
Isaac C. m?1. Betty Clayton 13/8/1792 Halifax.
Isaac C. m?2. Hannah Elliot 14/11/1813 Halifax.
Joshua C. b. 1731 father John Cockcroft2
Joshua C. m. Mary Pickles 24/11/1757 at Halifax.
Mary Pickles c. 1732 Halifax
John C2. c. 6/6/1711 Heptonstall, father John C1. mother Susannah Sutcliffe.
John C1. m. Susannah Sutcliffe d. of Henry S. of Haworth 20/5/1700
?? Johes2 C. m. Maria Marshall 16/2/1684 HeptonstallJohes1 C. m. Martha Normanton 11/8/1664 Heptonstall
???Henry C. c. 27/2/1582 Halifax, father John Cockcroft mother Eliz. Northend.
Henry C. m. Mary Wade Halifax 1627
I think this broadly supports your suggestions of 31/5/2010, with which it can perhaps be reconciled.
All up for discussion of course.
