According to the statistics of Vasil Kanchov ("Macedonia, Ethnography and Statistics"), 360 Muslim Albanians lived in the village in 1900.[4]
The 1920 Greek census recorded 487 people in the village, and 447 inhabitants (80 families) were Muslim in 1923.[5] Following the Greek–Turkish population exchange, Greek refugee families in Vartholom were from Asia Minor (3), Pontus (41) and the Caucasus (51) in 1926.[5] The 1928 Greek census recorded 219 village inhabitants.[5] In 1928, the refugee families numbered 94 (353 people).[5] The village mosque with a tall minaret was destroyed.[6]
Agios Vartholomaios had 200 inhabitants in 1981.[7] In fieldwork done by anthropologist Riki Van Boeschoten in late 1993, Agios Vartholomaios was populated by a Greek population descended from Anatolian Greek refugees who arrived during the population exchange.[7] Pontic Greek was spoken by people over 60, mainly in private.[7]
