Notes for William Ferrand
He was the first Ferrand armiger, with Francis Clifford, later earl of Cumberland, paying the cost to the heralds.  See Arms Blazon note.
___________________________________________

Flowers’ grant of 1586 gives this William’s ancestry:

Roger Ferrand = Isabel Dawtrey, sole heir
|
Robert Ferrand
|
William, 1st s.
!
Christopher
|
(This) William Ferrand

I suppose this has much the same credibility as any visitation record.
