Abstract: Abstract The general aim of the study was to describe population development (fertility, mortality, and internal migration) in northern Namibia in the period 1925–90. Only very rough, unreliable estimates given by the South African colonial administration are currently available. The first aim of the study was to describe mortality (childhood and adult mortality), fertility, and internal migration in Ovamboland in northern Namibia between 1925 and 1990 by using parish record data. The second aim was to try to understand and to clarify the mortality, fertility, and migration development during the study period in Ovamboland. In addition, these results are compared to those given by the first Namibian census in 1991 and to the first Namibian Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS), 1992.
