buried at South Granville Presbyterian Cemetery

"The Gaelic speaking people of Granville were well cared for by the late Mr. Hector Falconer. Scarcely did a Sabbath pass for many years that this good man did not meet with the congregation and conduct religious services with them in Gaelic. He also conducted weekday meetings and visited, read and prayed with the sick in Gaelic. Such elders are a great help and blessing alike to the minister and to the congregation. He passed away quietly on the 15th September (1887), in the 85th year of his age."
