At his death his heir John, his eldest son by his 2nd wife, was aged 16. The seeds of serious dissension between his widow Isabel and her stepdaughter (and sister-in-law) Alice had been sown by Sir John’s entail of the Harthill inheritance, which had been promised to Alice on her marriage to Ralph Shirley. Isabel also became engaged in disputes with Joan Dabridgecourt, the widow of her stepson the younger Sir John Cockayne; and it was doubtless with a view to safeguarding her interests in the lawcourts that she took as her second husband Thomas Bate, a lawyer and councillor to the duke of Buckingham. She was still living in the 1460s.
The first Cokayne to be knighted. Despite his wealth and the family’s consequent rise in status the Cokaynes’ dynastic and political fortunes fell following his death, which included the childless deaths of heirs, long-lived dowagers, lengthy minorities, and the accession of the Yorkist dynasty
