Hi Thomas Cochrane was a native of Dublin, Ireland and subsequently established a lawyer's business in the town of Ballyconnell, Parish of Tomregan, County Cavan, Ireland. On the 28th April 1819 he married Mary, eldest daughter of Edward Whiteley, Esq. in Ballyconnell Protestant Church. The ceremony was carried out by the Rev. William Richardson.
His youngest son Joseph was born in 1832 and the following obituary is given in the local Anglo-Celt newspaper for 18th August 1848- "August 14, at Ballyconnell, Master Joseph COCHRANE. This excellent, amiable, and lamented young man, who has at an early age of 16 years, fallen a victim to the prevailing epidemic, was youngest son of Thomas COCHRANE, Esq. His afficted friends have indeed the soothing consolation of a general participation in their sorrow, as we have seldom heard of so deep an impression of sympathy attending the loss of individual worth."
On 3rd May 1838 Thomas Cochrane gave evidence about the local courts in Ballyconnell which may be read online at- http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=-10SAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA77&dq="thomas cochrane" ballyconnell&hl=en&ei=WpaTTLr9BovNjAfUzZ3LBQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CCgQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q&f=false
Your grandfather was probably the grandson of the above Thomas Cochrane and was probably named in his honour.
