   User ID: Y482.

  General Notes:

"According to some sources Malcolm (Wallace of Elderslie) was the father of the Scottish patriot William Wallace, however the seal of William Wallace, rediscovered in 1999, identifies him as the son of Alan Wallace of Ayrshire, who also appears in the Ragman Roll of 1296 as 'crown tenant of Ayrshire'. Dr. Fiona Watson in 'A Report into Sir William Wallace's connections with Ayrshire', published in March 1999, reassesses the early life of William Wallace and concludes, 'Sir William Wallace was a younger son of Alan Wallace, a crown tenant in Ayrshire'. "
