Malcolm Wallace

Sir Malcolm Wallace was Lord of Elderslie, Scotland, and father of the famous William Wallace. He was born in 1249 and married Lady Margaret Craufurd. They had five children: Two older girls, then Malcolm 2nd, Sir William, and Sir John. When Sir Malcolm and his son Malcolm 2nd refused to swear allegiance to Edward I of England, they stole away in hiding for several months. Upon their return, at the Battle of Loudoun Hill, they were ambushed by the English and killed brutally.

Malcolm Wallace died on 23 Aug 1305
