6. | Sir Archibald (1st baronet of Glencairn) Acheson was born in 1583 (son of Captain Patrick Acheson and Martha Drummond); died on 9 Sep 1634. Notes:
A Scottish jurist, Lord of Session of Scotland as 'Lord Glencairn' He was also Master in Chancery of Ireland,
Or Glencairney?
(Research):He may have had another daughter by one of his marriages, Isabella Acheson of Gosford, who married Hector Og Maclean (1583? 1623). Sources list her as the daughter of "Sir Archibald Acheson", but because of her age, she may have been the daughter of Captain Patrick Acheson or one of his siblings. If she was the same age as Hector Og Maclean, she would have been born in 1583 and would have had her first child around 1600 at age 17. If she was the daughter of Sir Archibald Acheson she would be born no earlier than 1610 the year Archibald married. This would make her at least 20 years younger than Hector Og Maclean, and would make her the same age as her own children. This is the error in the standard genealogy.
Archibald married Agnes Vernor before 1610. Agnes was born about 1583; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

(Research):Sir William Cockburn, first Baronet of Langton's wife is stated to have been Sir Archibald Acheson's daughter by his first wife."
