Omschrijving
The death of a childless, unmarried wealthy Portuguese official, in Brazil, in the late 18th century, initiated a judicial process of inheritance that mobilized a considerable amount of relatives for 13 years (1795-1808). These inheritance files, deposited in the National Archives of Torre do Tombo (Lisbon), provide an extraordinary amount of accurate genealogical information and contain transcripts of parish records that have been lost in the meantime. Furthermore, they provide the correct relationship of individuals that share the same names and could otherwise be mistaken with each other. By cross-referencing these inheritance documents with other documents still available today (i.e. other parish records, the Holy Office records, the Honorific Orders records, Military records and the de genere inquiries), we were able to reconstitute this important family group: its members, their occupations and genealogical information such as births, marriages and deaths.
