William Cochrane, 1st Earl of Dundonald
William Cochrane, 1st Earl of Dundonald (1605– November 1685〔Sean Kelsey, ‘Cochrane, William, first earl of Dundonald (1605–1685)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, May 2006.〕) supported the Royalist cause during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms.
==Biography==
William Cochrane of Coldoun, who was knighted by Charles I, acquired the estate of Dundonald in 1638. He was created ''Baron Cochrane of Dundonald'' in 1647.〔 The part he had taken in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, is evidenced by the proceedings of the Presbytery of Ayr, who, on 28 February 1649, debarred "Lord Cochrane" from renewing the Solemn League and Covenant, he having "been a Colonel in the late unlawful rebellion, and having went to Ireland to bring over forces," etc.
In 1654, he was fined in £5,000 by Cromwell's Act of Grace and Pardon. In 1669,〔 he was made a Commissioner of the Treasury and Exchequer, and created ''Baron Cochrane, of Paisley and Ochiltree'' (having previously acquired the latter barony), and ''Earl of Dundonald'', with remainder to the heirs-male of his body, failing which, to tho eldest heirs-female of his body without division, and the heirs-male of such heirs-female, bearing the name and arms of Cochrane.
The Earl, in his old age, was accused, 1684, of having kept a chaplain with his son, then dying, 1679, who prayed for the success of these rebels in the west—those covenanters who defeated Claverhouse at the battle of Drumclog. The Earl died in 1686, and was interred in the church of Dundonald.
