Timeline
She died in 2020 after sustaining injuries from the explosion in the Beirut port on August 4, 2020. Her children and grandchildren accepted a wreath and a posthumous National Order of the Cedar medal from a representative of the Lebanese president.
She was president of the committee and general manager of the Sursock Museum in Beirut from 1960 until 1966. She founded the Association for the Protection of the Natural Sites and Ancient Buildings (French: Association pour la protection des sites et anciennes demeures; APSAD) in Lebanon and was its president from 1960 until 2002.
After her family sold much of the land to the newly formed Israel, she retained some properties and land in the territory and embarked on a long legal battle to have her assets released from Israel after the declaration of state. She was repeatedly turned down under the Absentee's Property Law of 1950, but with added support from the then President of Lebanon, Camille Chamoun, in 1980 the court ruled in her favor and financial compensation for land around Jaffa and Haifa was agreed upon. At the time she was one of the richest people in Lebanon and was well known for her support of Pierre Gemayel’s Kataeb Party.
She studied at Les Oiseaux, in southern England and was fluent in Italian, French, and Lebanese Arabic. In 1946, she married Sir Desmond Cochrane, 3rd Baronet. When her husband's father died, the couple inherited the Woodbrook estate outside of Bray, County Wicklow, Ireland, and moved into the home in 1952. They had three sons and a daughter. The couple separated in the 1960s, and Sir Desmond Cochrane moved to Cyprus and died in 1979.
Yvonne, Lady Cochrane (née Sursock; 18 May 1922 – 31 August 2020) was a Lebanese philanthropist, social figure, advocate of the arts, and a member of the prominent Sursock family. She died on 31 August 2020, from injuries sustained in the Beirut explosion on 4 August 2020.
She was born on 18 May 1922, in Naples, Italy. She was the only daughter of Alfred Bey Sursock, a Lebanese aristocrat, and Donna Maria Theresa Serra di Cassano, the daughter of Francesco Serra, 7th Duke of Cassano. Her father owned thousands of tracts of land which included much of Jezreel Valley, the Western Galilee, Haifa, and Jaffa.
