I am looking for a word to describe people such as barber, ironsmith, tailor, carpenter etc. People with miscellaneous specialty who would move to a village to serve others who are normally into agriculture. Any ideas?

Depending on the domain, area of business, etc., different terms are employed, including skilled worker, artisan, tradesman, technician, smith, wright, artificer, etc. – Kris Dec 7 '14 at 5:47

If you are writing a story ... Guildsman - the bunching of skilled labour into a collective. Frequently, such collectives are monopolising collectives. Guildsmen provide services no others can provide and none other allowed to provide unless being part of the fascist (Italian for bunching) socialist collective. – Blessed Geek Dec 7 '14 at 15:45

Artisans might be another possibility.
