Oh so that's what a cordwainer does. I see it listed sometimes as an occupation in enlistment records and for some reason have never googled it. I knew it involved working with leather - because of references in trials to thefts of leather from cordwainers - but didn't know it was a shoemaker (mostly I think they just referred to them as shoemakers in the court records, because I've only seen cordwainer a handful of times).
