Cockeysville is an unincorporated community and a census-designated place located in Baltimore County, Maryland. Cockeysville was named after the Cockey family which helped establish the town. Thomas Cockey (1676-1737) settled in Limesone Valley in 1725 at Taylor's Hall (an area now just north of Padonia Rd and east of I-83). Joshua Frederick Cockey (1765-1821) built one of the first homes in the area in 1798 and built the first commercial structure (a hotel) in 1810 in what would become the village of Cockeysville. His son, Judge Joshua F. Cockey (1800-1891) lived lifelong in the village and built the train station (what would be part of the Pennsylvania Railroad) and accompanying commercial buildings in the 1830's. Joshua F.
