Sažetak
This paper presents historical-demographic movement and population development of Bogomolje parish on the island of Hvar, according to the registers of births/christenings and deaths from 1855 to 1894. Bogomolje, a hill settlement on the eastern side of the island of Hvar, was mentioned as early as in the 15th century, but it was intensively populated during the period of the Ottoman conquests when it was colonised by population who had fled from the mainland of the Adriatic coast, mostly from the coastal area of Makarska. An analysis of natural movement data has served in this paper as an indicator of birth and mortality rates, natural increase and migration balance, based on which the migration wave that had affected Bogomolje parish at the end of the 19th century was presented.
