    Four theorems are proved in the paper that involve the \(q\)-digamma function and a Hausdorff sequence. The Bernstein transform, for a measure (\(\mu\)) in \([0,1]\) is considered along with its Mellin transform, which are holomorphic in the right half-plane \(Re(z)\) greater than zero. A certain Hausdorff moment sequence is considered and it is proved that a sequence, under some prescribed definition, is a Hausdorff sequence. The fundamental purpose of this paper is to study the first two elements of certain sequences. Theorem 1.2 of the paper is the main result. Another theorem, which is analogue to the above theorem, shows that a particular measure (probability measure) has a continuous density with respect to the Lebesgue measure on \([0, \infty)\). Section 4 is devoted to several questions in this direction.
