The aim of the study is to provide basic socio-economic and demographic characteristics of Milčice in the 18th century, and thus create the prerequisites both for an adequate interpretation of Vavák’s Memoirs and for the study of these aspects of the peasant past, which other sources do not explain in similar complexity.
