lumberer
Timber harvest worker
A lumberer is a person who cuts down trees and prepares timber for market—the same as a lumberjack or logger.
The term is more common in Canadian English: The lumberers worked through the winter months.
Lumberer can also mean someone who moves clumsily, lumbering along.
