Charles Fausset Falls (1 January 1860 – 20 September 1936) was a unionist politicianinNorthern Ireland.
Falls studied on HMS Conway and then at Trinity College, Dublin, then managed the family estate, at Fallsbrook, County Tyrone. During World War I, he served as a major in the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers.[1]
Falls stood unsuccessfully for the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) in Fermanagh and Tyrone at the 1923 UK general election, being defeated by two Nationalist Party candidates.[1] At the 1924 election, the Nationalist Party did not stand, and Falls was elected alongside fellow UUP member James Pringle, easily beating two Sinn Féin members.[2] Falls did not stand in 1929, when two Nationalist Party members gained the constituency unopposed.
Falls' eldest son was the historian Cyril Falls.[3]
