Have you looked at the Moray Libindx site? It can be very useful for people searches.

I have William Falconer, born Feb 1846 in Edinkillie, parents William Falconer and Isabella Walker. William Jr b 1846 married a relative of mine, Jane Stephen, in 1884, and they emigrated to the USA. Their children were born in Missouri but in 1900 they were living in Kansas City. I do have some small puzzles with them!

William Sr was born about 1813 in Duffus. As he isn't related to me I have not followed him up.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
