For over 300 years, whilst Scotland and England fought battle after battle, those living on both sides of the border made a living by “reiving” or raiding their neighbours’ property. They had their own system of laws and justice, and introduced new words into the English language, such as “bereaved” and “blackmail”. Their first allegiance was to their own family and their surname. Kith and Kin meant everything to them. Their enemies were not the English or the Scots, Chartered Accountants but any surnames at feud with them, no matter which side of the border they occupied. Do you have a Border Reiver surname?

  • Clan ARMSTRONG
    Clan ARMSTRONG ARMS Argent, three pallets Azure CREST An arm from the shoulder, armed Proper MOTTO Invictus Maneo (I remain unvanquished) The legends and traditions of this powerful Borders family hold that the first of the name was Siward Beorn (‘sword warrior’), also known as Siward Digry (‘sword strong arm’), who was the last Anglo-Danish Earl of Northumberland and a nephew of King Canute, the Danish king of England. The family is said to have been related by marriage both to Duncan, King of Scots and William the conqueror, Duke of Normandy and King of England. The name was common over the whole of Northumberia and the Borders, and the Armstrongs became a powerful and warlike border clan in Liddisdale and the debatable border land. Black lists Adam Armstrong as being pardoned at Carlisle in 1235 for causing the death of another man and Gilbert Armstrong, steward of the household of David II, as ambassador to England in 1363. The Armstrongs continued to expand their influence into the valleys of the Esk and Ewes and in about 1425 John, brother of Armstrong of Mangerton, in Liddisdale, built a strong tower. The Armstrongs were said to be able to raise three thousand horsemen and at one point were in virtual control of the debatable land. In 1528 the English warden of the marshes, Lord Dacre, attacked and raised the Armstrong tower but the Armstrong response was to burn Netherby. The Armstrongs’ power was seen as a threat by James V to his own authority and according to tradition, the king tricked John of Bilnockie to a meeting near Hawick, where the king hanged the laird.
