A question about William Wallace.

[ccga3359]

Todd, there is a certain fellow that you 'know' well (he has been active on a Heraldry site you frequent, is from Canada and is the chair of a clan society) who has the position that Wallace was a mere myth. Since there is no evidence of any birth records, the man is nothing more than a Scottish myth and never actually existed.

Interesting position. Not that I'm going to jump all over this, even I know that even if records don't exist, doesn't mean the man didn't. It's also easier to argue that with no evidence than have to produce the same to counter that. Where does myth end and fact begin in regards to William Wallace?

Sorry Daz, I don't know who that would be. I know the piper in the linked pics from St. Kentigern's in Lanark, but not this fellow.
