There is so much misunderstanding at the beginner level when people learn they have Scottish ancestors. What they picture in their minds, unless they have verified Highland ancestry, is often wrong. Those from the Borders looked (in dress) and sounded (in language) much different from their Highland counterparts. In this episode I endeavor to untangle this. Never fear! Border Reiver descendants, your history is no less colorful than that of the Highlands.
