Cochrane History
It is thought that the ancestry of this family began with a Viking warrior who decided to settle in Renfrewshire in the ninth century. There are a number of theories as to the creation of the name this Viking’s descendants took.
After fighting so ferociously in a battle, an early family member was praised by his leader as ‘brave fellow’
