Surnames: Ferre Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VFB.2ACI/4190 Message Board Post: I am looking for an account of a RR accident on the Western Railroad at the Chester Factories in the days preceding October 6, 1853. The accident was reported in the NY Times on that date. Daniel Ferre of Springfield was killed in the accident. I hope an obituary or account of the accident will tell me more about his family.
