      The first person of this surname in Henrico County, Virginia, is that of Richard Ferris. Robert Hollom obtained a patent in Henrico Co., on 2 June 1636 for the transportation of twenty persons, one of whom was listed as Rich. Ferris1.This Richard Ferris1 must be the father of Elizabeth Ferris who married Robert Woodson, about 1656, on the north side of the James River.The close association with the Woodson family is evident for several generations.From the association of Robert Woodson with Richard Ferris2, we assume that Richard Ferris1 was the father of Richard Ferris2.
