  === Notes from the Crawford Clan Association ===
  Margaret Crauford (~1250 - 1296?)
  
  Margaret Crauford, great granddaughter of Sir Reginald Crawford (the 1st Sheriff of Ayr), daughter of Hugh Crauford (3rd in the Loudoun Crawford line), sister of Sir Reginald (the 1296 Sheriff of Ayr), was the mother of William Wallace, the great Scottish patriot. We know little of her life, except that she married Adam Wallace and gave birth to the hero -- at least that is the tradition. The fullest treatment of her life and Wallace's Crauford relations is found in Blind Hary's "The Wallace". Little is found in historical documents, and we do not know how accurate is Blind Hary's account. Thus a well loved heroine, she is an enigmatic but vibrant figure of Scottish folklore.
