Armstrong... a good Northumbrian name. I'm a Robson and a Reiver, originally from Hexham - a Robson stronghold. I now live out in the "more rural than rural" Northumbrian wilds!

Interesting video. I've been to Carlisle there's a list of riever families on the English side of the border. Very interesting history of the Scottish and English borders. It must have been a lawless and wild place.

Interesting to see the attire! I'm an Armstrong as well. William Armstrong born 1791 brought us over here as an Ulster Scot (born in Down, Ireland). I believe he was a border reiver before going to the plantation.

Great video, I was wondering why you didn't have a Dirk? Just curious, thanks!

Thank you! Dirks were more of a Highland implement later in history from the Reiving period. The Bollock Dagger was more geographically and time period appropriate.

The border 'clan' tartans are phoney. A nineteenth century invention. I am not too judgmental of the border reivers, were the result of the economic and military consequences of Edward I, 1296 invasion. Particularly the sack and capture of the port of Berwick on Tweed, and the resultant loss of the Flanders' wool trade. In addition, the reivers were a cheep and effective way for the Scottish state to maintain an active militarized border. They were self funding, informal land privateers.

Just a little Nickpick: It is not a blood groove on the blade. It is called Fuller and stabilises the Blade to prevent it from bending. It also reduced a bit of weight.

Very interesting-thanks. My dear old mother had cousins who farmed at Norham-right on the river Tweed and almost in the shadow of Norham castle which was the 'half-way line' so far as there was any clear division in the lawless Borders. Wish I'd asked more as a child. I think however that the 'Reiving times' were more after the fashion of Indian raids on white settlers in the US- descending in force, often at night, on isolated targets and carrying off whatever they could. I'm sure you know that the word 'bereaved' comes from the results of their murderous outings. Likewise, subsistence farmers in the North Tyne/ Rede valleys would leave out 'black meal' in the hope that the (usually Scots) reivers would take that as sufficient and carry on to raid elsewhere-hence 'blackmail'. I'd love someone to contrast the Scots 'tower houses' for defence with the English 'bastles'-poor men's castles- into which they went every night and pulled up the ladder against Scots raids. The door had a 'spout' above it to allow the occupants to pour water down when the reivers tried to burn their way in. Hard times.

You need to read a peom" Wild wind of Lamamore, "my ancestors were reivers, although the Armstrongs were one of the answers the 4 major ones were Amstrong, Dodds, Elliott, Kennedy s, there were others, the reason I tell you this the Kennedys were prosecuted in thr CARLISLE Court and banished to Ireland for 30 years after which they could have come back to England. They chose to stay that's why American history is up sh1t creek.Some of my family were Dodds,, and the leader of the household a woman, if she came into kitchen and put a covered plater on the table, and lifted cover and IF under the plater there was no meat but the spurs for your riding boots, it was time to go Raiding, otherwise you HAD NA MEAT TA EAT! You are right but none could be trusted, and even brother fought brother,

To see girls and young women wearing the same uniform I did 20+ years ago, at such an important place, fills me with pride. I saw the despair in my sister's eyes when she wasn't allowed to go on all the adventures I did. Expanding the BSA to include women was one of the best things the organization has ever done. To live to see a girl wearing an OA Brotherhood sash, the same as mine. Makes me smile.

I am interested in that list of Borders Clans who were border Reivers I am both about equally a Forster and a McCulloch and I suspect both were involved. Also I am writing a Clan McCulloch history focusing on their North American history, but anything be fore the 1750s or so would be useful. A snippet from my research: Western author Zane Grey’s great great grandmother was a McCulloch.

I thought it would be good to let you know where I am coming from and as a geologist I have always been a detail guy. Not a rush as I had to learn a new open source GIS system to do some decent cartography for the web and having mastered, I think, the software I need to digitize some old maps. I have the background, but open source software is notorious in that nobody wants to write documentation, so you often have to figure it out yourself.
