Walter married Janet GORDON, daughter of James GORDON 2nd of Newton and Issobel FORBES 'Lady Williamstoun'.1 (Janet GORDON was born about 1604 and died on 27 June 1683 2.)


  Marriage Notes:

"Janet (Gordon). She was apparently the wife of Walter Cochrane, merchant burgess of Aberdeen, who brought a curious action against his 'brother-in-law,' George Gordon of Newton, before the Privy Council, June 18,1635. The Newton MS. pedigree calls Janet the daughter of George, but this is apparently wrong."
