William Field (Samuel Field's Father) was a Cordwainer
British tradition distinguishes the terms cordwainer and cobbler, restricting cobblers to repairing shoes.[1] In this usage, a cordwainer is someone who makes new shoes using new leather, whereas a cobbler is someone who repairs shoes.
In the historic London guild system, the cobblers and cordwainers formed separate guilds,[9] and the cobblers were forbidden by the Mayor of London in 1395 from working in new leather, and cordwainers similarly forbidden to meddle with old shoes. Historically, cobblers also made shoes, but only using old leather recovered from discarded or repaired shoes
