Abstract

This work analyses the 1801 manuscript censuses of four of the eight Companhias de Ordenangas of Lorena. The, main characteristics of the slave population are studied (marital status, age, sex etc), which shows that 53% of all slaves had family ties. The analyses of slave family structures shows that the "regular" families were predominant and concentrated in the estates with greater number of slaves. Other aspects studied are: the legitimacy of the children under 14 and the condition of the mothers (married, widowed or single), by origin, colour and age groups.
