Every town has a first chapter, and Ferrum is no exception. Ferrum's name is the Latin word for iron. The village grew up around 1892 along the new Roanoke and Southern Railway, which linked Roanoke with Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and early in the 1900s it became a regional shipping hub. In 1913 the Virginia Methodist Conference founded Ferrum Training School to educate mountain children, and the school grew into Ferrum College. That's from the Virginia Department of Historic Resources.
Ferrum is a community in Franklin County. The Census Bureau counted 1,827 people here in 2020.
