SUMMARY:

 The present study analyzes different aspects of the life experiences of children enslaved in the Freguesia of São Gonçalo dos Campos, between 1835 and 1871. To this end, we investigated in a variety of written and oral sources the evidence that made it possible to understand the logic of slave relationships in Brazil. São Gonçalo dos Campos, a region where the agro-export and subsistence economies were associated. In this territory of economic diversity, producers, as in other slave regions, opted for the use of enslaved labor for the production of tobacco, manioc, coffee, corn, beans and livestock. The difference in this context was the substantial presence of adult women / mothers, Creoles and children / children exercising forced labor in agricultural services on tobacco farms. These young children participated in the networks and relationships constituted by the slave world. In their diversity of experiences, they became the main characters of this thesis. The analysis respected the context shown in the sources, so we initially used historical demography, which allowed us to detect similar, repeated stories, thus stimulating reflection on the social history of child slavery and unraveling the microanalytical experiences of these stories. as you can see when reading the text. Therefore, tracing the sources inaugurated the experiences of the lives of slave children as a field of study for Brazilian social history and, specifically, baian historiography, shedding light on new work on slave children in different regions of Brazil.
