Best Answer

A freeholder is a person who owns title to a piece of property. This was the same in the Middle Ages as it is today. People who owned property outright, but were not lords of manors, included yeomen, who were small farmers on their own farms.

It happens that there is an office of Chosen Freeholder in New Jersey. The Board of Chosen Freeholders in a county form the government of the county. In the old days, such people had to own land in the county to qualify for the position, but this is long since no longer true.
