William Wallace, Hero of Scotland
William Wallace lived 1270 to 1305, William was a Scottish Patriat who led his country against the English occupation of Scotland and King Edward 1 of England as part of the wars of Scottish Independence. In 1296, Scotland was effectively under English control. The following Year, the English sheriff of Lanark had murdered Marion Braidfute, Wallace's wife, and Wallace took his revenge by killing the sheriff and burning his castle. He joined the growing popular revolt against the English and won a decisive battle of Stirling bridge when the Scots won against the English.
Following the victory, Wallace was made a knight and Guardian of Scotland. However a year later the English invaded Scotland and successfully won against the Scots at Falkirk although Wallace managed to escape. He evaded capture until 1305 when he was betrayed near Glasgow by a Scottish knight loyal to Edward. After a show trial, he was horribly executed by the English in London as a traitor. There is a plaque on the wall of St.Bartholomew's Hospital, near the site of Wallace's Execution which is often visited.
