agricola
Agricola is Latin for farmer, one of the most common occupations in Latin parish registers.
Agricola means a farmer or cultivator of land. It is one of the most common occupations in Latin parish registers.
Because so many men were farmers, agricola rarely tells one man from another. Use it together with the place name, the wife's name and the house number if the register gives one.
