Hello,
I believe Christopher Cochrane and indeed James Locket are one of my direct descendants. The search for Christopher has been just as elusive for myself.From my own research most of the Lockharts are tied to the townland of Craigarogan. There was a number of different Lockharts who moved to Belfast and there are Lockharts buried in Mallusk Graveyard. Isabella and James I believe - I have a photo if anyone would wish to have it.
I have James Lockhart and Margaret Cochrane marrying in 1853 at the Antrim Registrar Office. They then had a son James who I descend from. James married a Rebecca McKinley at the Templepatrick Parish Church. The residence at their marriage shows them staying the in the Vicarage. I get the impression that some of the Lockharts were Presbyterians though which makes me kinda get the impression that the Cochranes may also have been attendees at Templepatrick Presbyterian or maybe Antrim 1st.
I hope this is helpful. I am intending to go to PRONI to check up on all this within the not too distant future so if any Cochranes come up I will gladly post - I haven't found any on my travels. Have been to Templepatrick Parish and there is one Lockhart grave there (no names) and no Cochranes that I could see.
