Isabell married Archibald COCKBURN Merchant and Burgess of Edinburgh in 1696. (Archibald COCKBURN Merchant and Burgess of Edinburgh was baptised on 14 July 1671 in Edinburgh parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland,1 died on 4 October 1715 and was buried on 8 October 1715 in Greyfriars Churchyard, Edinburgh, Scotland.)


  Marriage Notes:

"In 1696 Archibald Cockburn had married Isobel Butler, daughter of John Butler of Harperdean, Haddington, and Isobel Swinton, his wife. The actual record of the marriage is not to be found, as the Haddington register of marriages is at that time blank - another instance of the records being carelessly preserved. As a result of this marriage Harperdean eventually passed into the possession of the Cockburns [....]

By her Archibald Cockburn had a large family, consisting of five sons and five daughters - namely, Sophia, Robert, Isobel, Archibald, James, Anne, Agnes, John, George, and Robina."
