Literature | Crowdero One of the rabble leaders encountered by Hudibras at a bear-baiting. The original of this character was one Jackson or Jephson, a milliner, who lived in the New Exchange, Strand. He lost a leg in the service of the Roundheads, and was reduced to the necessity of fiddling from alehouse to alehouse for his daily bread. The word means fiddler. (See above, Crowd.). Source: Brewer's Dictionary. |
Slang in 1811 | CROWDERO. A fiddler. Source: 1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue. |
