Pretty much standard North American Scotch-mist jockaramic mythology.
Strange how nobody celebrates the mass of Scottish immigration to
North America, which consisted of economic migrants with little or no
Robin Hoodised retrospective anti-authoritarian posturing. But then
it's not quite as entertaining to discover the single Scots ancestor
(amongst the millions of less romantic ancestors, such as English,
German, Lithuanian or second-generation American) was a teenage
indentured servant and not Rob Roy.
