I've heard of Robroyston, but I had never visited. Somewhere like this needs to be better sign posted and better promoted, especially as it is so historically significant.
It is believed that he nearly became a priest. It does have to be remembered that he was also a brutal person, as so many people were during the Medieval Period.
@@davytolmie99 yeah, it has been suggested that the name Marion was used to try and tie Wallace to the Robin Hood legends. That’s the thing about Wallace. There’s so much about him that we don’t know.

I totally agree that it needs to be better promoted. I'm glad that you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for sharing Claire, I didn't get the chance to watch this till today.

Your day trips make me happy!
I'm glad that you enjoy my videos.
Thank you,Sharon, that's very kind of you.
🙂 My Scots ancestors are from Ayrshire, mainly the Kilmarnock area. I believe Ayrshire figures just a wee bit in Wallace history.
I do believe that the family did have ties to Ayrshire. I think that they may have had land in that area.
And, Wallace fought for his country! Hallelujah!
Yes, he did.
Your trips make me happy.
I'm glad that you're enjoying them,
William Wallace was a Christian. God lifted him up to lead the nation of Scotland! He was a great leader! I’ve been to the memorial.
It is believed that he nearly became a priest. It does have to be remembered that he was also a brutal person, as so many people were during the Medieval Period.
What is William Wallace’s wife’s name?
Legend says that her name was Marion. But there is no historical, or archaeological evidence that Wallace was ever married.
Marion Braidfute is one name, but a lot of historians question this.
