A variant or archaic spelling of 'feroher' or 'ferrier,' possibly referring to a worker in iron or one who forges; exact definition obscure.
Potentially related to Latin 'ferrum' (iron) with Middle English agent suffix '-er,' though historical documentation is limited and this may be a regional or obsolete term.
Feroher is the kind of word that linguists get excited about because it's almost lost to history—it appears in old documents and then vanishes, leaving us puzzled about whether it was a trade name, a place, or a specialized craft.
