- Scope & Content:
-
This volume contains burial records of freed (forro) and free individuals registered in the Church of São João Batista (Baptista) de Niterói between 20 May 1854 and 06 Oct 1864. Interim Municipal Judge Sabino Francisco Frougeth signed the opening and closing charters on 09 Jan 1854; he also initialed the folios. The volume opens on folio 6. Due to their poor condition, it was not possible to photograph folios 6-11, 40-43, or 53-66 . Vicar Antonio de Mello Muniz Maia noted that on the authorization of the Bishop of the Chapel, he signed all entries left by his predecessor, Vicar Thomaz de Aquino. The volume includes some burials of free Africans (africanos livres), as well as of Portuguese, English, Spanish, and Italian individuals, among others. Burials of two unidentified men are documented on folios 32F and 48V. The burial of the free son of an enslaved woman appears on folio 139F.
