A Border Reiver is Born - 1525

Conner was born in Hume Castle, in the Scottish East Marches. In his younger years he was trained to become a monarch's man, to eventually become a Warden. Although the office of Warden was not hereditary, in Scotland it tended to remain with the same family through generations. To be an effective 'governor' required that he learn to be a mixture of soldier, judge, diplomat, lawyer, fighting man, administrator and rough-rider. For many a year he served as a deputy warden, until his clan was dispatched to fight in the continental wars of the French King ... upon his return he became known as a "Steel Bonnet", often better known as Border Reivers.
