Abstract

This work studies the importance of family relationship among slaves in Bananal (São Paulo, Brazil) in the early nineteenth century. Additionally, it examines the effects, on the slave family, of the introduction and growth of coffee plantation occurring in that region during the period studied. The conclusion is that the slave family in Bananal had a cyclical evolution, according to the genesis and development of coffee plantation. Manuscript censuses, especially for the year, 1801, 1817 and 1829, are the primary sources on which the analysis is based.
