Jeronim, a Franciscan, who was accoriding to Dominik Mandić born in Trogir, [1] was appointed as the bishop of Duvno by Pope Eugene IV on 22 April 1439. [2] The episcopal seat was vacant for 27 years, and the diocese was administered by its previous bishop George of Imotski, who was translated to Hvar until his death in 1428 [3] and after by Petar Tilikonis, the bishop of Makarska. [4] Jeronim was consecrated on 16 February 1440, and after twenty years in the episcopal chair, he resigned around 1459. [2] [5] Ante Škegro considers that some forty leaders and other members of the Bosnian Church who the Catholic Bosnian king has expelled Thomas in 1459, and who have found the protection and refuge in the domains of Stjepan Vukčić Kosača, who controlled the territory of the Diocese of Duvno, have expressed their animosity towards the Catholic Church. This, coupled with frequent Ottoman incursions in the territory, were, according to Škegro, possible reasons for Jeronim's resignation. [6] The last document mentioning Jeronim was his will written in Omiš in 1465, in which he left all of his possessions to Juraj Cesarović, a parish priest from Nerežiće in the isle of Brač, under the condition that he takes care of him until his death and gives him a proper burial.

John of Hoio was an abbot of the Cistercian Orval Abbey in present-day Belgium and Triumfontium in Luxembourg who, according to Konrad Eubel, served as the assistant bishop of Trier, simultaneously holding the title of a titular bishop of Duvno in present-day Bosnia and Herzegovina. Dominik Mandić, while researching the history of the Diocese of Duvno, could not find any documents on him, thus being unable to determine whether John of Hoio ever served as the residential bishop in Duvno. At the end of his life, John returned to the Orval Abbey, where he is buried.

Madius was a prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the bishop of Duvno from between 1298 and 1311 to his resignation in 1344. Konrad Eubel considers him a second bishop of Duvno, while Dominik Mandić left the question open whether Madius was indeed the second or the first bishop of Duvno, as he couldn't find any document confirming his alleged predecessor John of Hoio as the bishop of Duvno. During his episcopate, he was involved in long-lasting litigations against the archbishops of Split as a representative of Bishop Valentin of Makarska over the control of Omiš and other church objects. Madius resigned due to what he calls "maliciousness of the people", which might refer to the opposition of his faithful to pay taxes and the political plight which befell him after his patrons from the Šubić family lost the political influence after the conquest of their domains by Stephen II, Ban of Bosnia. He nevertheless retained the title of a bishop and, according to Ante Škegro, lived on the territory of the Archdiocese of Split.
