RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Surname Ferro
Thanks for the information, Eliseu, Ferreira is one of my ancestral names.could you tell me where in old Spain the name is commonly found? Best regards, Nancy Jean From: eliseuman...@gmail.com To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Surname Ferro Date: Sun, 6 Apr 2014 14:15:29 + Just to help to clarify a bit... FERREIRA as a surname is a very old one coming from old Spain. It doesn't mean blacksmith. It is what is called a patronymic. The word FERREIRO is the one referring to a Blacksmith. It is in the masculine gender because, at those times, there were no woman blacksmiths. It was a men profession.´ As an example you will have always men and women named: FERREIRA. If you see a men named FERREIRO it is for sure that it is a nickname and that he does not belong to any FERREIRA Family. Hope it helps to clarify!

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Surname Ferro
Hi! The old village where the FERREIRA family house is nowadays goes by the name of Herrera de Rupisverga in Spain. It looks like the old name was HERRERA. The first one was Álvaro Rodrigues Ferreira, in the kingdom of Leão, old Spain; he lived around 1170. He served under Portuguese King D. Sancho I.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Surname Ferro
Yes, I see Ferro as a surname in Flores records. Usually a combined form of Paulo Ferro, or as Valadao Ferro . It means* iron*, so may have started as an* alcunha *for a strong person, a dark and grayish person, or a rusty colored one.
