Can one assume that you mean the Highlands of Western Scotland? If so, they would probably have been Scots. The history books also show that they may have been called Borderlanders. Thanks. That suggests that they came either from the Scottish or the English side of the border, possibly from Cumbria (in England) or the the area of Sctland to the north of Carlisle. (Assuming, for the moment, that the 'western' reference is correct). The main hilly parts in those areas are1. the Lake District (but that is probably too far south) and2. practically the whole of southern Scotland between Gretna and Edinburgh.See if you can find some good maps of the area. The answer would be borderlanders.
