Anyone know old profession names?

An online friend is doing some genealogy research and came across "cordivainer" (see screenshot). Our Google fu only came up with "cordwainer", a type of cobbler who works with soft leather.
Any suggestions most welcome. Thanks!

ETA: Thank you for your comments. The explanation of poor spelling/weak lines/poor scan is rather likely.

I think that probably is "cordwainer", but poorly written (or poorly scanned)...

Do not forget that a cordwainer makes shoes as opposed to a mere cobbler who only repairs them.
