    Lucius Henry Charles Plantagenet Cary, 14th Viscount Falkland (25 January 1905 – 16 March 1984), styled Master of Falkland from 1922 to 1961, was a Scottish peer.

    The eldest son of Lucius Cary, 13th Viscount Falkland and his wife Ella, Cary was educated at Eton College.

    On 14 October 1926, Cary married Joan Sylvia Southey. They had two daughters before divorcing in 1933:

    On 21 February 1941, he was commissioned as a pilot officer on probation, in the Administrative and Special Duties Branch of the Royal Air Force.

    Cary and his second wife were divorced in 1958. He married again on 24 April 1958, to Charlotte Anne Granville. They had no children, and divorced in 1974. He succeeded his father in the peerage in 1961.

    In 1979 he was arrested for sexually abusing underage girls. He pled guilty to all the charges and received a six-month suspended sentence and a £1,140 fine.
