Sam,

I've done a small research, Ceareiro (most Priests write it down with a C
but you will also find with an S) or Seareiro, are man that use to be
responsible for keeping crops safe (a kind of Silo guards). Look for the
words Silo, Celeiro (Barn), Ceara, Cereais (Cereals) or Seara, Milho (Corn),
Trigo (Wheat), so on.

Campones (in current written portuguese, theres a "hat" on the e - ê its PT
character I don't know if your PC can read it) So this Campones, is a man
that may own small quantities of land or just rent them and produces small
quantities of agriculture products, potatoes, beans, etc.

Lavrador is in general a man that owns cattle or takes care of cattle, not
all Islands had conditions to produce milk, in fact, even today, just a few
have. So some would just produce meat, all in small quantities, usually of
local use or small sale.

I think that in US the word FARMER is used to all activities, here there
were a few, according to each activity, still is.

I use this free software for a few years now as a quick image editor
http://photofiltre.free.fr/ I'm a Photoshop and many more design software
user, for some time, I work with design, image, photography, etc, so I can
affirm that this little program, besides being free and small, is quite
simple and at the same time powerful. Look for Downloads, its available in
several languages.

Cheers
