Summary/Abstract: The Skender Quart is one of the oldest urban parts of the City of Srebrenica. Since the medieval period, it nourished urban tradition and represented a developed urban quart throughout the whole Ottoman period. The paper deals in more detail with the characteristics of the Hajji Iskender Quart of the City of Srebrenica in the mid-19th century, or more precisely in 1850/51. There were no translated and source data on the more detailed demographic, genealogical and other ethnological and sociological characteristics of Hajji Iskender Quart in the mid-19th century so far. A detailed overview of the previously unknown and unused data from the official census of the population from 1850/51 is presented in this article. The above census shows us the basic demographic, genealogical and other sociological characteristics of the Hajji Iskender Quart in the mid-19th centuries, such as the total demographic situation, i.e., the total number of men, and detailed data on the male population of all houses in the Quart.
