description The authorʼs systematic analysis of the registers of births, marriages, and deaths and the Status Animarum for Veli Brgud, as well as analysis of numerous other historical sources gathered a lot of data about life, epidemics, and many disasters that marked the lives of the village residents during the 19th century. This paper serves to present the information to the general public. Veli Brgud still remembers only one of those epidemics and disasters – the 1855 cholera, while others are completely forgotten. The paper tackles epidemics and disasters that depict the difficult life of the village during the 19th century. Additionally, the example of cholera serves to give an insight into the functioning of the then authorities on prevention and protection against the spread of infections, which can be deemed effective even from a time distance of almost 170 years.
