On September 13, 1866, he acquired the Pazo do Cotón for 14,000 escudos from Mr. Nicanor Manso de Zúñiga Ezpeleta, VII Count of Hervías, the last member of the nobility who had inherited it from his aunt in the fifth degree, Mrs. Francisca de Paula de Luaces e Saavedra who did not have children from her marriage to D. José Mariño de Lobeira.
With the Revolution of 1868 that caused the resignation of Queen Isabel II and marked the first attempt at a democratic regime, D. Roque Ferreiro presided over the Negreira Revolutionary Assembly to name the new corporation that replaced the conservative government, in which he held the position of Trustee, whose function was to guarantee the functioning of the institution and defend the rights of the administered. The recovery of the Judicial Party of Negreira was then promoted, suppressed in 1867 due to the indifference of the previous residents, the Ames City Council becoming dependent on the court of Santiago, and an assembly was convened with representatives of the other municipalities to request the replacement given the damage it caused to the economy of the Region and to the legal rights of the residents.
He led political life during the second half of the 19th century and upon his death in 1888 his son Ramón Ferreiro Varela inherited the Manor, who married his cousin Teresa Caamaño Ferreiro who married the local doctor Victoriano Fabeiro García. Her daughter Teresa Fabeiro Caamaño has a street dedicated to her in Nicrari.
The Praza de Ferreiro has undergone various modifications over time, in 1951 it was paved, closed and endowed with the current fountain and in 1988 it was remodeled and landscaped with the appearance it presents today. In the oldest house, the name that refers to the famous Roque Ferreiro y Hermida, Knight of the Order of Carlos III and owner of the Pazo do Cotón, is still blurred. plazadocoton.blogspot.com/2021/03/praza-de-ferreiro.html

Negreira
Highlight • Settlement
The first settlements in the Negreira area were located at the strategically important ford over the Río Tambre, as well as on the main road to the coast (from Grandimirun, now Brandomil, to Aquis Celenis, now Caldas de Reis), and on the other hand, the riverside road along the Tambre, which connects the interior with the coastal region around Noia.
Pre-Roman activities can be traced throughout the A Barcala area. The settlement of Nicraria Tamara is mentioned in Roman times, during which time silver mines were also exploited here.
In 876, Negreira passed into the possession of the Compostelaan bishop Sisando by royal decree. In 979, Normans raided the Galician coast, and the town was wiped out. After the threat from the Normans and Moors was overcome, the town was rebuilt in 1113.
The Catholic Monarchs granted the town a royal privilege known as the Fuero Real, which secured Negreira's independence from the Compostelaan archbishop. Charles V renewed the privilege in 1520.
