Lake Cochrane is named for a pioneer, Bryon (By) Cochrane, who came to the area in April of 1872. He became the first permanent white settler in Deuel County when he homesteaded the land on the south shores of the lake. He lived at Lake Cochrane until his death in 1949. A historical marker marking the site of his log cabin built in 1872 can be found on the south side of SD Hwy # 516.
