husbandman
A husbandman in England in the medieval and early modern period was a free tenant farmer or small landowner. The social status of a husbandman was below that of a yeoman. The meaning of "husband" in this term is "master of house" rather than "married man".
It has also been used to mean a practitioner of animal husbandry, or in perhaps more modern language, a rancher.
==Origin and etymology==
The term ''husband'' refers to Middle English ''huseband'', from Old English ''hūsbōnda'', from Old Norse ''hūsbōndi'' (''hūs'', "house" + ''bōndi'', ''būandi'', present participle of ''būa'', "to dwell", so, etymologically, "a householder").〔(''American Heritage Dictionary'' on "husband" )〕
