Cochrane baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for members of the Cochrane family, both in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

The Cochrane baronetcy, of Woodbrook, Old Connaught, in Bray in the County of Wicklow, of Lisgar Castle in Bailieborough in the County of Cavan, and of Kildare Street in the City of Dublin, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 8 October 1903 for Sir Henry Cochrane,[1] governing director of Cantrell and Cochrane, mineral water manufacturers, of Dublin, and an alderman of that city for many years.

[2] The Cochrane baronetcy, of Woodbrook in Bray in the County of Wicklow, was created in the baronetage of the United Kingdom on 10 February 1915 for Stanley Cochrane[3] to honour his services to cricket and music.

[4] He was the third and youngest son of the first baronet of the 1903 creation (see above) and was involved in the family mineral water manufacturing business.

The heir apparent is the present holder's elder son Alexander Desmond Sursock Cochrane (born 1973) who is married to Irish-Canadian heiress Alannah Weston (of the Weston family) with two daughters.
