Are you familiar with the term "betters"?

I’m participating in a facebook thread about Trump voters, and a woman on there said that uneducated white people where she grew up trust their “betters.” I had to ask twice what that meant, because I was in a state of disbelief. She said it’s their bosses, ministers, and local politicians. Basically, leaders in the community, and people they look up to.
I’m so completely turned off by using the word “betters” to describe these people.
Have you heard the term? What do you think about it?
