We study the set \mathcal PS consisting of all branched holomorphic projective structures on a compact Riemann surface X of genus g ≥ 1 and with a fixed branching divisor S:= ∑i=1d ni⋅ xi, where xi ∈ X. Under the hypothesis that ni=1, for all i, with d a positive even integer such that d ≠ 2g-2, we show that \mathcal PS coincides with a subset of the set of all logarithmic connections with singular locus S, satisfying certain geometric conditions, on the rank two holomorphic jet bundle J1(Q), where Q is a fixed holomorphic line bundle on X such that Q⊗ 2= TX⊗ \mathcal OX(S). The space of all logarithmic connections of the above type is an affine space over the vector space H0(X, K⊗ 2X ⊗ \mathcal OX(S)) of dimension 3g-3+d. We conclude that \mathcal PS is a subset of this affine space that has codimenison d at a generic point.
