Re: Meaning Colocco
Are you certain of the spelling? Where did you find this occupational reference?

Re: Meaning Colocco
a copy of this reference was provided by the comune in San Leo, written in script, under the colum named Professione, condizione, mestiere, it could be colouo?
I think it may be a word from the romangnole dialetto, at one point I though it meant someone who works the land, owned by another.

Molte grazie Liviomoreno!
it is colono - just found another reference in which the script is easier to read.
