    ( Ogle ) Border Reiver ?

    I was wondering after reading a Post about Border Reivers , I seen the name
    Ogle pop up , So I was interested in finding out if ( Ogle ) was Scottish ?

    I looked up the name and It appears to be (English )
    But , does any Clan carry ( Ogle ) as a Sept ?

    My Grand Father was Ogle on my Mom side .

    Just wanted to know if any one could help with info .

    ** I did a search on here and it does not appear to show up that this question has been ask before **

    Thank you
