The original chiefly line sold the barony and estate of Langton to a cousin who was created a baronet in his own right in May 1671. His claims and those of his descendants to a baronetcy were questioned by several compilers of genealogical reference works in the nineteenth century, and initially rejected in the early twentieth century by the Standing Council of the Baronetage; however, following research by his great-grandson Sir Robert Cockburn of that ilk, ninth baronet, the baronetcy (created in 1671) was recognized and placed on the official roll.
