Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1905, p. 488-489:
Thomas G. Ferriss, the owner and proprietor of the finest and best equipped livery establishment in Windsor, is also one of the city's leading businessmen. He is descended from one of the leading families of the County of Essex.
     The great-grandfather of Mr. Ferriss was a United Empire Loyalist, having come to Canada from the States about the time of the revolutionary war, and settled in Bois Blanc, a part of the County of Essex. His family consisted of three sons and two daughters, namely: John, Isaac, Samuel, Polly and Esther.
     John Ferriss, the grandfather of Thomas G., was born in 1795, in Bois Blanc, and died in 1882 in Toronto. He married a lady named McCormick, who was born in 1797, in the County of Essex, and their children were: Mathew, who died in 1899, in Manitoba; John, deceased; Mary, the wife of Alexander Quick, of Essex South; Joseph was a farmer and wagon-maker of Essex South; Sarah, deceased, who was the wife of James Waddell; Elizabeth, deceased wife of Charles Wright; and William who died in 1900, in Essex South.
     John Ferris (2), son of John, and father of Thomas G., was born in 1816, in the County of Essex, where he followed farming, spending his whole life in his native country. He became prominent in politics, was for many years a member of county council, and was also reeve of the township. His death took place in 1897. His wife bore the maiden name of Hannah Renwick, and she was born in 1822, in the County of Kent, of English parentage, and now resides on the old homestead in South Essex. The Ferriss children were a hardy lot, and grew to manhood and womanhood, intelligent and much esteemed. Miss Malinda, who resides at South Essex; Malcolm, born in 1849, who followed farming until 1880, when he went to the North-west where he became a land-dealer, for nine years was provincial land inspector and is now engaged in a real estate business at Portage la Prairie, Manitoba; Thomas G., of Windsor; and Arthur R., a farmer of South Essex, who married Nora Malott, and they have two children, Eddie and Sydney.
     Thomas G. Ferriss was born Sept. 7, 1854, on the old Ferris homestead, Colchester Twp, County of Essex, and remained on the home farm until he was twenty years of age...
