Ancestors of the Border Grahams
Ancestors of the Border Grahams
First Generation
1. Walter Graham, son of Richie Graham , was born in 1555 in Netherby, Cumberland, England.
General Notes: The whole Sept of the Grahams, under their chief Walter, the gude man of Netherby, was exported to Ireland. The reason stated was because they had been troublesome on the Scottish border. They were transported from the port at Workington, County Cumberland, England to Roscommon, Ireland, which is south of the three counties mentioned for the Nethery family. The Sept at this time consisted of 124 persons, nearly all bearing the surname of Graeme or Graham. The Anglo-Irish and other Genealogies page 231 states "In 1606 the descendants of Richard of Netherby were banished to Ireland. Their land was forfeited, and was sold in 1629 to Richard Graham, second son of Richard Graham, of Plomp, son of Matthew Graham of Springhill, beyond which it is impossible to trace the present family of Graham of Esk and Netherby." This gives you some indication of the difficult problems that we are up against.

i. Sir Richard Graham of Esk
ii. Arthur Graham
iii. Thomas Graham

Fourth Generation (Great Grandparents)
8. William "Lang Will" Graham of Stuble, son of Sir John "With The Bright Sword" Graham of Kilbride and Margaret Mushet , was born in 1468 in Scotland.
General Notes: John Graham’s book ‘Conditions of the Border at the Union,’ printed 1905, gives us this description of Long Will starting on page 159. "1552 the clan numbered 500 warriors, sturdy defenders of the Border, inhabiting thirteen strong towers, eight of which lay between Esk and Leven rivers. The leader to whom their ancient fame as a fighting clan was largely due, was William Graham of Stuble (Lang Will,) a man of immense size and muscular strength, combined with a commanding personality. He seems to of (sic) had been one of those masterful spirits like Gilnockie (Johnnie Armstrong), thrown upon the surface in lawless times to control and direct the actions of the most untamable of men - an instrument capable of infinite mischief, but equally capable of great good if wisely enlisted on the side of law and order."
Lord Thomas Scrope of Bolton, the English Warden of the Western March identified Lang Will as a Graham, laird of Mosskeswra. (D&G Trans., 1959-60, p.105). Some time prior to May 1463, the lands of Mosskeswra, Nether Dryfe and Medokholm (sic Bedokholm) were granted or confirmed to William the Graham/Lang Will, by Herbert of Johnston. (D&W Trans., 1959-60,p. 89).
The career of William the Graham can be fitfully traced through the
records. Between the years of 1476 to 1492 he was in trouble for violently
possessing parts of the lands of his superior, the Earl of Morton, in
addition to this there was a dispute with Mr. Alexander Murray, minister of the Kirk of Hutton. Lang Will was ingathering and detaining the teinds
(tithe) of the church for more than a year (on the theory: "His land (his
money!") but the Lords of Council had no hesitation in ruling in favor of Mr. Murray.
Lang Will was banished, lost his lands. He had no goods to be escheated (forfeited), a fugitive at the horn, outlawed and banished from Scotland. Should he be assaulted, imprisoned or even slain there was no redress for him as he was outwith the law. He could not escape to foreign service as many did, without forsaking his young family of six sons, Richard being the oldest. There was one refuge for him close at hand: 20 miles from Hutton Parish, Dumfriesshire, Scotland was the Debateable Land fast filling up with broken men from both sides of the Border. There were already many Grahams on the Border " stark moss-trooping Scots" (Border Raiders) living there. Banishment was complete: if the outlaw merely stepped over the frontier into England.
(D&W Trans.., 1959-60, p.91, 104-105; C&W Trans., 1911, p.70).
From the Northern Notes and Queries (Vol. I, No. 6, p. 116) we find the
Border Grahams of the sixteenth century both numerous and warlike. In 1528 they were amongst the most troublesome of the Liddisdale Borders.
William Graham/Lang Will, had taken up residence in Stuble, Armstrong
country. This led to constant strife between the two most notorious riding
families in the Western Marches, the Armstrongs and the Grahams. Richard Graham of Esk, eldest son of Lang Will, however married the daughter of the laird of Mangerton, an Armstrong. William Lord Dacre, the English Warden of the Western March, in 1528, made, as he thought, a secret raid to attack Johnnie Armstrong of Gilnockie's Hollows Tower in Eskdale. Though it was sacked by Lord Dacre, he and his troops fell into a trap and were badly mauled by Johnnie Armstrong’s people. While Lord Dacre was occupied with saving his skin, Johnnie Armstrong of Gilnockie slipped behind him and burnt the village of Netherby in England and a mill owned by Lord Dacre. Lord Dacre believed Johnnie Armstrong had news of his coming from Richard Graham, Richard being married to an Armstrong. Richard Graham was taken into custody by Lord Dacre, 23rd March 1528 and delivered to Carlisle Castle’s high tower with fetters upon his feet. Thus shackled, he was charged with treason and awaited his execution. On Sunday the 29th Richard was allowed to go loose and unshackled up and down the castle by order of the under-sheriff, Sir William Musgrave to eat in the dining hall and attend church services.
When the opportunity presented itself, as planned Richard leaped out by a privy postern which stood open to the fields where there was a man and a led horse ready for him. Richard galloped to Scotland taking shelter with the Scottish Warden, Lord Maxwell in Scotland. Later he was joined by his father, Lang Will (now of Stuble), his brothers and thirty family members. Richard succeeded in clearing himself of the charge of treason by proving that a member of the Storey family of Netherby and Mote had informed Johnnie Armstrong of Lord Dacre’s raid. The Storeys fearing Lord Dacre’s fury, fled into Northumberland. Their lands were occupied by the sons of Lang Will who promptly divided up the land amongst themselves.
The lands of Netherby went to Lang Will’s oldest son, Richard and the second son, Fergus Graham (note: not Fergus Graham of Plomp) received the lands of Mote. (C&W Trans., vol XXXII, p40, 1912 & GMF Steel Bonnets, p.64). Lord Hereis in his discourse on the Borders states the thieves of the March (Grahams) with English assistance had slain the Lord Carlyle, the lairds of Mouswauld, Kirkmichael, Kirkpatrick-Fleming and Logane and other landed men. He also asserted that the Grahams "gat of their ransoms and spuilzie gottin in Scotland, worth 100,000 merks," (obsolete silver Scottish coin worth 13 shillings and 4 pence, c.1710).
Then the Grahams built eight or nine towers impregnable to the power of the Scottish Warden. The present Netherby Hall was built around one of these ancient towers. Their neighbors were forced to take the Graham daughters in marriage without a tocher (dowry), which did not increase their popularity. In 1542 the Grahams were not more than 20-30 at most, by 1578 they were 16-18 score (320-360) well horsed.
(R.P.O., iii,, 78 in D&G Trans., p.105, 1959-60).

Sixth Generation (3rd Great Grandparents)
32. Malise Graham Earl of Menteith, son of Patrick Graham of Kilpont and Euphemia Stewart Countess of Strathearn , was born in 1407 in Elieston, Linlithgow, Scotland and died before 17 May 1491 in Scotland. Another name for Malise was 1st Earl Of Menteith.
General Notes: !The earldom of Menteith, on the execution and forfeiture of Earl Murdoch, became vested in the Crown, and a moiety of it was conferred in 1427 upon Malise Graham, son of Sir Patrick Graham and Euphemia, granddaughter of Robert Stewart, as some compensation for the loss of the earldom palatine of Strathern, one of the oldest and most illustrious of Scottish dignities, which he had inherited from his mother, and which the King had appropriated on the plea that it was a male fief. The other portion was reserved to the Crown, and was afterwards known as the Stewartry of Menteith.
=======================
The earldom of Strathearn was vested in the Crown by David II, who made his nephew Robert the Stewart Earl of Strathearn in 1357. After his accession to the throne as Robert II, Robert gave the earldom as a palatinate (an earldom in which the earl has sovereign power within that territory-basically a small kingdom) to his son David (along with the Earldom of Caithness, which had also belonged by inheritance to Malise, last Celtic earl of Strathearn). However, the old traditions of sovereignty within the earldom became such a political hot potato that it was eventually discontinued.
The earldom passed out of the Stewart family in the early fifteenth century, and devolved upon Malise Graham, grandson of David, Earl of Strathearn and Caithness by his daughter Euphemia, his only child. In 1427, however, while Malise Graham was still in his minority and a hostage in England as well, the acquisitive James I (himself recently returned from a long captivity in England) flagrantly deprived Malise of the earldom and gave it instead to his uncle, Walter Stewart, Earl of Atholl (during the same period the insecure and acquisitive Stewarts enhanced their direct power and control over Scotland by deviously obtaining control of all the most important Scottish earldoms). Subsequently (in 1437) James was murdered, hacked to death by disgruntled nobles-Stewarts among them-led by Sir Robert Graham, uncle of Malise. After 1437 the title remained in abeyance, and in 1484, Strathearn was made a "Stewartry" (a sheriffdom of lands held directly by the Crown) under the Murrays of Tullibardine in Strathearn, descendants of Malise, Steward of Strathearn through his daughter Ada about 1284. The office of Steward (or Stewart) was originally that of "first household officer," and as such, this Malise undoubtedly descended from a younger son of one of the earls of Strathearn the office passing with the lands of Tullibardine.
=========================
In the early fifteenth century the then Graham chief's half-brother Patrick Graham married Robert II's granddaughter, who was the heiress of the new Stewart Earldom of Strathearn, and their son, Malise Graham, was thus heir of Strathearn. Patrick Graham was killed by the Drummonds in 1413, leaving the infant Malise in the guardianship of Patrick's younger brother Sir Robert Graham of Kinpoint. In 1427 James I seized the rich Earldom of Strathearn, giving Malise instead the almost empty title of Earl of Mentieth, and packing him off to England as a hostage-prisoner for almost 26 years. Sir Robert Graham, the boy's uncle and guardian protested in vain, and finally raided the King at Perth and killed the King himself, for which act he was later tortured to death. This line continued, however, and in 1631 the then Earl of Mentieth renewed his claim on Strathearn, but was in 1633 forced to accept the Earldom of Airth instead.
===================
The Royal Burgh of Linlithgow is dominated by the ruins of the ancient Palace and the Cross of the St Michael's Church. Linlithgow is roughly halfway between the two most important Scottish Royal castles situated at Edinburgh and Stirling so was a convenient and scneic location for the Kings of Scotland to retire to to enjoy country pursuits like hunting. Today it is located on the Union Canal and just off the M9 motorway which linking these two cities which is just to the north of Linlithgow Loch. The town is twinned with Guyancourt, France.

General Notes: Robert II, 1316-90, king of Scotland (1371-90), nephew and successor of David II . He was the first sovereign of the house of Stuart, or Stewart, which eventually succeeded to the English as well as the Scottish throne. The son of Walter the Steward and Marjorie, daughter of Robert I, he was regent three times (1333-35, 1338-41, and 1346-58) for David II during the latter's exile and captivity. He thus led the resistance to Edward de Baliol and Edward III of England. Robert rebelled against his uncle in 1363 when David recognized Edward III as his successor. On David's death (1371), however, he succeeded peacefully to the throne, in accordance with the succession law adopted in 1318. Robert's first marriage took place after the birth of several of his sons, but their succession to the throne was legitimized by an act of Parliament in 1373. Through most of his reign the government was dominated by two of these sons-John, Earl of Carrick (later Robert III) and Robert Stuart, later 1st duke of Albany. The Scots in alliance with France fought off several English invasions; they invaded England without assistance in 1388 and won a great victory at Otterburn. Robert was succeeded by Robert III.
