It needs to be noted that his surname is commonly mis-spelt FAULKNER, and has been in Australian newspapers since at least 1853. A Google search clearly shows the mis-spelling is still happening by those who should know better, including government websites. ~2026-51787-57 (talk) 23:48, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
