Grave of James Cochrane
& Margaret Crawford

Above is a photo of the flat topped tomb and below a digitally enhanced enlargement of the actual inscription which, in 2001, is still quite legible.

This tomb contains the first three sons of Capt John Cochrane (1762-1831) of Edenmore plus the wife of James. The eldest son John (1797-1860) inherited Edenmore and, on his death unmarried, passed it to his next brother Joseph Zaccheus (1800-1881). He, in turn, died unmarried and passed Edenmore on to the next brother James (1801-1887) who had married Margaret Crawford (1803-1865) and produced seven children.
