Hi! WE are Wallaces from the north and we have a legend in the family that one of Argyle Wallaces son"s escaped with the original Sir William Wallaces son and a nurse maid to France after he was drwn and Quartered. It is also said there has been a william Wallace as the first grandson from that time to now at least in our family. There is today still a tradition of doing this. My uncle is a William. Near as we can make out there wer several bastard children born to him and he acknowledged everyone but would never marry again in public because of the Prima Nocturn Law in Scotland it was one of the way's he snubbed the English. legend goes that they stayed a time in France and then to Ireland and then back to Scotland.as to how many generations this took ?????? so we are probably all related the question is where. Also there were bcousins who escaped to Ireland when the English tried to wipe out the Wallaces and some who changed the spelling to Walliswho stayed in Scotland. I hope this explaines some of the confusion after this time and the differences that are coming up. My grandfather was very proud of his heritage and it was one of the first things I learned from him as a child, He took it as gospel truth told to him by his father and gggrandfather????? BByam5
