The present study is a part of a research on Lielvārde-Jumprava parish in the 19 th century. The results of an earlier study were presented at the XXIV Scientific Readings and published in the Collection of articles of the conference. The author has used four kinds of the sources of information - soul revision lists, church books, archives of O. Hūns, and documents of Manasein revision. At the beginning of the 19th century, 92% of the population in Lielvārde parish were peasants and only 8% belonged to other estates of the society. Thus, the present study is targeted at the peasants of the parish in the 19th century. The chronological frames of the study are 1815-1884. In soul revision lists, church books, and archives of O. Hūns, the inhabitants are listed according to manors, but in Manasein revision lists - according to the parishes. Lielvārde-Jumprava parish had five manors, and the total number of peasants was 4300 in 1815. The number of peasants grew steadily and reached 7579 in 1884. The author has gathered information on the annual average birth and death rate in the above mentioned period of time (200 births and 138 deaths). Overall, each year there was a positive natural increase of population with an exception of 1880, when the mortality rate exceeded the birth rate because of the scarlet fever epidemic. The victims of the disease were mainly children. Consequently, there were 62 more births than deaths a year. The increase of the peasant population was also influenced by migration. As a result of the migration, the number of peasants increased by 693. Overall, the number of peasants in the above mentioned period of 70 years had increased by 76%, but one fourth of all registered men - taxpayers - did not live in their parish. Non-registered inhabitants were all listed, including women, and taxpayers were not distinguished. Thus, the actual population of the parish in 1884 could be approximately 7000. The gender division of the population is worth mentioning: until 1826 the number of men and women registered in parish was equal, but in 1884 the number of women exceeded the number of men by at least 350.
