Abstract

The specialized literature about family is producing, in varied approaches, a significant number of studies, including some in Historical Demography. In Portugal there is a great documentation about bishops pastoral visitation, and these materials are an important source for different studies affording the opportunity of analyzing and understanding the phenomena of legal and illegal birth, and the questions of heritage transmission. This paper intends to explore different sources and cross their data in order to obtain reports coming from parochial reports, with the aim of analyzing marriage, family and individual social reproduction, and the conditions under which occurred the denunciations to the visitors.
