When did the highwaymen come into existence?

The highwaymen came to an existence when there was the first robbery. The robber robed a young girls house and she told everybody about it. She told the police and the police went to find the robber. Then the police found the robber. The police asked the robber why do you think you can rob the young girls house and he said because he is a highway man. This happened all the way back in 1674 and the story still continues. I was told this by my uncle who is an expert about highwaymen. He said that he only found this out in 1998 but he still doesn't know if it is a real story.
