FERRERS of Bere Ferrers and Newton Ferrers, Devon.

Ferrieres: Manche, arr. Mortain, cant. Le Tilleul.

In 1086 Bere Ferrers (Birland) and Newton Ferrers (Niwetona) were both held by 
Reginald de Valletorte of Robert count of Mortain. At a later date both were held by 
Ferrers of Valletorte as of the barony of Trematon. The earliest recorded existence of 
this family in Devon was Ralf de Ferrers in 1168. Ferrieres is 12 kil. S of Mortain and 
26 kil. N of Vautorte (dept. and arr. Mayenne, cant. Ernee). In 1112 Roger de Ferrariis 
occurs among the witnesses 'de valle Moritonii' to Henry I's charter of confirmation for 
the abbey of Savigny. Ferrers of Churston Ferrers, Devon appear to have been cadets 
of this family, and it is probable that all those of the name in Devon and Cornwall were 
of the same stock. [Origins of some Anglo-Norman Families]
