I have two John Charles Falkner's in my tree.

One (b. abt 1860) who married Alice Hannah Wright 4 Apr 1893, Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, England. Their daughter Mercy Falkner b. 4 Sep 1895, married Austin Osborn Kidd SUTTON, b. 1 Nov 1887.

The other (no BMD details) married Charlotte Iris Hedding. No details of any children.

Any clues?

Mercy Falkner, my aunt by marriage, had a brother who was at the Royal College of Music in London. I do not know the other Charles Falkner, though I thought we had Heddings on our family tree

This is a reply to very old blgs. Sorry, but I only picked them up now. 3rd World technology. John Charles Falkner, father of Mercy, Ivan etc was indeed married twice. He was married to Alice Hanna Wright first and after she died he married Charlotte Iris HEDDING on 04/01/1932 in Plumstead, Cape Town. She died at their home in Stellenbosch from cancer. She is buried in East London, south Africa. I can take the Falkner side back as far as Robert FALCONER ( Yes, the son changed his surname to FALKNER when he joined the army) in 1790. He was from Kinnef etc, in Scotlad and was married to Margaret TROMBLE
