Viscount Ferrard

Viscount Ferrard

The Viscountcy of Ferrard was created in 1797 for Margaretta Foster. Her husband John was created Baron Oriel. Thus, their son Thomas inherited both titles.

The third Viscount had inherited yet another title - the Viscountcy of Massereene - prior to inheriting the Ferrard title. Therafter, the two Viscountcies have remained united.
