sawyers
Mill wood workers
Sawyers are workers who saw timber into boards, historically operating pit saws or water-powered sawmills.
The term also refers to trees or logs caught in rivers, often bobbing dangerously in the current—their sawing motion against the water gave them the name.
The steamboat captain watched for sawyers and other snags.
