History [edit | edit source]

Prior to 1720, Minas Gerais was part of the captaincy of São Vicente. The get-go capital of Minas Gerais, and seat of the local come across, was the metropolis of Mariana; information technology was later moved to Vila Rica. In the late 18th century, Vila Rica was the largest city in Brazil and i of the most populous in America.
During the 18th century, mining exploration was strongly controlled by the Portuguese Crown, which imposed heavy taxes on everything extracted. Several rebellions were attempted by the colonists, e'er facing strong reaction by the royal crown. The nigh notable rebellion, however, was the Inconfidência, started in 1789 by group of eye-class colonists, mostly intellectuals and immature officers. They were inspired past the American and French ethics. The conspiracy failed and the rebels were arrested and exiled.
In the economic history of Brazil, Minas Gerais plays a pivotal role in shifting the economic axis from the Brazilian northeast, based on sugarcane, that started declining in the 18th century. The large amounts of gold establish in the region attracted the attention of Portugal dorsum to Brazil, progressively turning Rio de Janeiro into an important port metropolis, from where these would be shipped to Portugal and where the Portuguese crown would eventually move its administration in 1808 after Napoleon Bonaparte'southward invasion of Portugal.

Civil Registration (Registros civis) [edit | edit source]

Civil registration records (Registros civis) are government records covering birth, union, and death. They are an first-class source of names, dates, places, and relationships.

In 1850, a law was passed requiring registration of births and deaths throughout the country. Until 1870, the Catholic Church was required to continue this tape. After 1870, these records were to be kept by the justices of the peace. Since 1827, the government has accustomed marriages performed in the Catholic Church as official marriages.

Civil registration records are kept on a municipal level by local civil registration offices. Records are later sent on to a municipal, district, or delegation office. People from minor villages oftentimes reported their births, marriages, and deaths to a nearby fundamental municipality function. Many towns in Brazil are very new. If you do not find records for the city you demand, y'all will need to determine when the city was founded and from which older city it was created (try a Google search). Origins of cities are too given in the reference book, Cidades e vilas 1998, which can be consulted online from a Family History Center computer.
