William Wallace was actually of Welsh stock, and settled in Scotland. 'Wallace' even meant speaker of Welsh, which could either relate to Welsh as spoken in Wales, or Cumbric (Old Welsh) spoken in 'Yr Hen Ogledd' ('the old North'). This is much a forgotten time in history ignored by Scottish and English historians. The region around Strathclyde and Ayrshire was part of an area occupied by Celts who were culturally tied to the Welsh (even the regions and place names were Welsh, and not Scots Gaelic), before the Anglo Saxons invaded after the Romans left, leaving room for Pictish tribes to move further south.
