The surname Falconer has two distinct possible sources, the first and most likely being from an Old French occupational name for a keeper or trainer of hawks. The hawk trainer was held in high esteem in medieval times as it was his responsibility to supply hunting hawks to his overlord or the lord of the castle. The surname Falconer was first found in Angus, where early records revealed Gulielmus Auceps, William the falconer, was granted lands to the church of Marington or Maryton.
