They Were the COmmonest Trader
In the Thirteenth, Century.
The manufacture of leather in tn,
thirteenth century seems to have been
important. showing that leather jenkins

have 10 skynners. 40 barkars. 6 sad
dclers. cordeweners. 1877 souters,
(shoemakers and 8 glovers. The sur
name feuster is trade name denoting
a maker Of pack saddles.
The commonest trades are taylour ana
smyth. since one lived in almost every
village. The taylours number 4O7, Of
whom $40 are called by the Latin name
of cissor In addition to 28l smyths,
several are specialized There are two

name faber French favre), one Of the
few cases in which the Latin transla-
tion of a trade name has become COM
mon surname. The wryghts' trade, like
that of the smyths, was specialize Il.
The arkwryght made the great arks OF

were stored, and we find a plowwryght.
a whcelwryght. two shippewryghts. II
cartwryghts and two glasswryghts (glA-
ziers) who were probably concerned
with the windows of churches. Glass
windows in houses were rare. as is still
the case in Sicily or Egypt.
The bakesters are few (l5). suggesting
that families baked their own bread.
There are rs butchers (tleshewer. bochcr
Or carnifex). whence Labouchere, while
the surname potter shows that this
trade was in existence. The fyssher
(43), were opulent, being taxed - times
