However, insights into his life can be gleaned from Konkani singer and writer Sharon Mazarello's literary work in the 2019 book, Tiatr 125th Anniversary Commemorative Volume.

Some of Ferrão' performances includes his roles in Cavelchi Sundori (The Belle of Cavel), a tiatr by Fernandes, and Minguel Rod's Ghorchem Kestaum (Family Feud), among others.

In addition to his contributions to live theatre, Ferrão made cameo appearances in two Konkani films, Amchem Noxib (1963) and Nirmon (1966).

Ferrão had a younger brother named Augusto, who had already established himself as an actor and playwright in the Konkani theater.

Ferrão entered into matrimony with Maria Consescao Mascarenhas, and their union resulted in the birth of a son named Joaquim, who, like his father, made contributions to the Konkani stage as an actor and singer.
