About this tartan

The Falconer surname comes from the occupation of training falcons. The family held Halkerton near Laurencekirk, and in 1646 Sir Alexander Falconer was created Lord Falconer of Halkerton. In 1778 the 7th Lord Falconer inherited the Earldom of Kintore; the Keith-Falconers held both titles until 1966
