I have deleted the text "a popular, but not well-documented belief is that some emigrated to Spain – e.g. the Scottish-English nobleman William Stewart Ferrer, father of Saint Vincent Ferrer. Also, Bernard Ferrer, an English Knight, and Auchias Ferrer, a Scottish Lord, came from Britain to Spain – to aid in the restoration of Christian rule in Valencia."

I've done it because the only source of this belief is "Trobes de mossèn Jaume Febrer" a pretending work of 13th century, but forged at the end of 17th century, and all the informations included only in the "Trobes" are absolutely discredited.

According to Dwight David Eisenhower, in his autobiography "At Ease- Stories I tell to friends"

Eisenhower said in this book that his last name- often translated as "Iron worker", actually was closer to meaning "iron craftsman", working on more artistic and ornate shaping of iron. Wou;d this also be true of "iron worker" in old French? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1C2:4E00:2100:D1BB:642A:8C00:43E3 (talk) 05:59, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
