Before about 1840, 95% of all people made their living by farming. (That was true everywhere in the world in 1840, and still is true in much of the world.)
Maryland colonists were, like all the other colonists, mostly farmers.
Most of the Marylanders who weren't farmers were fishermen. The 5% or so who weren't farmers or fishermen were blacksmiths, or farriers (shoeing horses), or coopers (barrelmakers) or shipwrights or weavers, or tailors, or cobblers (shoemakers) or jewelers, or any of the hundred other skilled trades that it takes to make a society function.
(Isn't it amazing that so many of our family names these days were the names of the professions that our ancestors did?)
