Scotland's numerous kindreds were often mounted warriors by tradition, training and capability, particularly those from the Northeast of Scotland and the Scottish Borders.〔Murdoch and Grosjean, p.20〕 The Douglas family were one such family. Many Scottish soldiers, infantry and cavalry, found themselves engaged in the various wars that are collectively called the Thirty Years' War and Robert Douglas was one of these. In 1627 he was received as a page in the Swedish service under John Casimir, Count Palatine of Kleeburg, castellan of Stegeborg Castle, brother-in-law of King Gustav II Adolf.
