Biography

Hugh was born in 1743.

birth witnesses: Hugh McGumrie, Hugh Fraser, Hugh Rose, Elspet Falconer and Margaret Hay

Hugh Falconer was born in 1743 in Foynesfield, Auldearn. Foynesfield is the site of St. Ninian's Well. The family seemed to have moved to Wester Logie, Belivat in Ardclach parish in the early 1770s, (wikitree Falconer-998 and Lethen images). Paul McKee Gifford in "Falconer of Halkerton" says that the connection of this family to the main branch "has not been established".

Robert Falconer was a grandson of Hugh Falconer in Foynesfield.

"David Falconer of Grieshop born 1703, was a grandson of Bishop Colin Falconer. He married Isabella Dunbar and had a daughter Emilia. Robert Falconer above, (1752-1823) sheriff-substitute of Nairn writes that she was a "beautiful and accomplished woman"".

David Falconer also had a "natural" son James, (wikitree Falconer-1001).

Hugh was born about 1740.
