The medieval cottar is believed to have been a simple serf, who lived by farming and who had limited lands to farm and no special office. The role of the cottar was to grow food. The word cottage originally meant the home of a cottar.
A cottager is a medieval peasant who held a house, i.e. a cottage, thus the name, and "toft and croft", meaning a barnyard enclosure of outbuildings where some animals would have been kept (the toft) and an area behind the house that was used for gardening (the croft). The size of the croft varied by location, but half an acre to an acre was typical. The croft was small enough that it was worked by hand, with a spade, rather than being plowed. The thing that a cottager lacked that separated him from his better off neighbors was any significant land in the village fields. As a result the cottager could not support himself just by their own agriculture, and would have to hire themselves out to others as day labor to make ends meet. The wife of a cottager might raise a small amount of money by spinning, brewing, or other such crafts, as well as also hiring out for labor. Women rarely did the heaviest labor such as plowing, but might be employed for tasks such as weeding, and during the harvest of August and September all able bodies persons of the village would be working in the fields. A cottagers is also sometimes called a "cotter."
Coopers made barrels, buckets, and other similar objects. They normally had workshops that were rather large, and so they did not travel to do their work and lived nearby. Coopers' work was used on manors and farms, vineyards, and in towns, where brewers made beer. So the coopers could have lived in any villages, towns, cities or monasteries. Coopers were probably mostly independent business owners or employed craftsmen. Their homes would have been a bit better than an ordinary serf's cottage, and rather like those of tailors, bakers, millers, carpenters, and masons.
Jesters were servants, who were paid to entertain. Their work included anything that might be entertaining, ranging from juggling to insulting their lords and their guests at the dinner table. There were not very many people who were wealthy enough to have servants devoted to making fun in such ways, so jesters were usually servants of wealthy lords. As such they might have slept in the manor itself, as other servants often did. If they did not sleep in the manor, they would have lived nearby, probably in a cottage.
In medieval times the land was tilled by serfs, also known as villeins. They were low status tenants of the local landowner A villein would work 20 to 40 acres of land Over time this has been changed in spelling and meaning
